Monkey Dust is a cutting-edge comedy animation created by an award-winning team of writers and visualised by some of London's finest young animators.
The series is set in a permanent urban nightmare - a nocturnal world inhabited by the sad, the lonely and the emotionally crippled. Its satirical targets range across the whole spectrum of British society, from dysfunctional families to heartless government departments.
This is a world of mass murderers and divorced dads, of illegal aliens and wannabe terrorists, of perverts, tramps, hookers and liars. Monkey Dust is a show that brings out the loser in everybody.
Series three sees the return of old favourites such as Ivan Dobsky, the falsely-imprisoned mass-murderer; Omar, Abdul and Shafiq, the would-be terrorists from West Bromwich; and the Paedofinder-General, now booked for a regular slot.
New characters include Fran Chappell, an ordinary mum who uses her daughter's disappearance as the springboard to launch a showbiz career, and Noodles, the lab rabbit who bounces back like Tom and Jerry from every unpleasant experiment.
Monkey Dust is produced by Harry Thompson (Have I Got News For You, Harry Enfield And Chums, Da Ali G Show) and written by him together with Shaun Pye (The 11 O'Clock Show, Tonight With Jonathan Ross). |
