A House in History

Sitcom starring Alistair Green and Kath Hughes as contestants on a new reality TV show, and Emily Lloyd-Saini and Alex Owen as the executives trying to thwart them.

A House In History is a brilliant new reality TV show which is nothing like Big Brother, actually - we follow one family, the Colchesters, as they live in a 1940s house with the clothes, amenities, food and restrictions that would have been in place.

Unfortunately the show is also massively over-budget, so the producers desperately need to ensure the Colchesters get nowhere near completing the six weeks in the house, which would see them win 拢100,000.

A House In History is written and directed by Will Farrell and Ben Rowse, the creative team behind the hit web series Petrichor (鈥淎 perfectly pitched portrait of deluded creatives pursuing a misguided passion project, it nailed the comedy of cringe without being self-indulgent... easily one of the best indie projects released over lockdown鈥 - Chortle) and the podcast Capital (鈥渄isturbingly funny鈥 - The Guardian).
