Carpool

Carpool (2010-2011)

EndedTalk Show show

Starting off as an online phenomenon, Dave is now bringing this unique chatshow to a TV audience for the very first time. Or, we should say, a conventional TV audience – we don't know whether we're coming or going when it comes to ways people watch what our dads used to call telly these days. Presented by Red Dwarf's Robert Llewellyn, Carpool sees the actor slip into a blissfully simple routine – he gets behind the wheel of his Toyota Prius, picks up a celebrity guest and chews the fat with them while he drives them to their destination. The online version of Carpool got an enormous two million downloads and boasted guests such as Stephen Fry, Patrick Stewart, Jonathan Ross and David Mitchell. This brand new series sees Robert manage to drive and chat to some more top guests.

Dept. Q

DCI Carl Morck is a brilliant cop but a terrible colleague. His razor-sharp sarcasm has made him no friends in Edinburgh police. After a shooting that leaves a young PC dead, and his partner paralysed, he finds himself exiled to the basement and the sole member of Department Q; a newly formed cold case unit. The department is a PR stunt, there to distract the public from the failures of an under-resourced, failing police force that is glad to see the back of him. But more by accident than design, Carl starts to build a gang of waifs and strays who have everything to prove. So, when the stone-cold trail of a prominent civil servant who disappeared several years ago starts to heat up, Carl is back doing what he does best - rattling cages and refusing to take no for an answer.
