Episodes

Episode 1: The three councillors have to contend with a fire in their beloved town. And they've disbanded the fire department. If they don't put it out soon, the Mayor's going to have their guts for garters. Or worse. Will the boys come up with the most inventive means of extinguishing a fire ever? Probably.

Episode 2: The town is hit by a crime wave and everything is stolen, including the entire police force and the lady mayor's wig. Will our unlikely hero-councillors be able to juggle their way out of this one and bring justice to their beloved Klangbury? With the help of the Department of Audience, Probably.

Episode 3: It's Valentine's Day and a loveless Greg is forlorn. His fellow councillors' efforts to find him a girl are hampered by the visit of the beautiful health inspector. Will Klangbury pass its health check and will Greg find love? Probably. But all is not what it seems as the mayor plays an unlikely trick on her lovesick deputy.

Awards

Their 2004 Edinburgh Festival Fringe show picked up a Spirit of the Fringe award and they were nominated for the 2006 IF Comedy Awards (the one year the award went under that name), for their show Klangbang.
