Roland is a fantastic chef who was on the brink of success 15 years ago, but has since lost the sparkle and drive needed to win that long coveted Michelin star. When he puts his mind to it he can cook with the best of them, but laziness gets the better of him, much to the annoyance of the restaurant's manager and Roland's secret admirer, Caroline (Katherine Parkinson). Joining them in the kitchen is quirky waitress Kiki (Isy Suttie), the hotel's owner Celia (Maggie Steed) and ambitious new apprentice chef, Skoose (Stephen Wight), whose ambition it is to replace the constantly under-pressure and long-suffering Bib! Amidst fine-dining and beautiful countryside, Whites should be a tranquil slice of heaven – but with this disparate group of characters behind the scenes, things can regularly heat up in the kitchen...

Better Off Ted is a satirical office comedy about successful good guy, Ted Crisp, who runs research and development at Veridian Dynamics, a company with a morally questionable approach to its employees. Whether it's standing by a memo with a typo that encourages employees to now (as opposed to not) use offensive language with each other, to championing interoffice dating based on DNA matching to save money on health care, Veridian is a company that puts its bottom line first and employees last. Ted's a single dad to a seven year old girl, and he loves his job, but he's starting to take a closer look at the company's extremely dubious practices.

Steve Carell stars in The Office, a fresh and funny mockumentary-style glimpse into the daily interactions of the eccentric workers at the Dunder Mifflin paper supply company. Based on the smash-hit British series of the same name and adapted for American Television by Greg Daniels, this fast-paced comedy parodies contemporary American water-cooler culture. Earnest but clueless regional manager Michael Scott believes himself to be an exceptional boss and mentor, but actually receives more eye-rolls than respect from his oddball staff.
