Arcadia: from the makers of The IT Crowd

Posted on March 2, 2008 | Post a comment |

Sounds a bit sh*t, but you never can tell with SRO's marketing evil. Plus it has a good pedigree ('from the makers of The IT Crowd,' they say. Who's that? The writers? The cameramen? The people who press the DVDs?)

ARCADIA

Arcadia is a youthful sitcom set in the real world around Clacton's finest computer games shop Games 4 U with a cast of characters whose minds are somewhere else entirely…

The shop is in financial trouble and ever-so-slightly neurotic manager Tony (Edinburgh Fringe Award winner Nick Mohammed) is doing his best to keep things afloat, ably assisted by Mr Sci-Fi convention himself, Jeremy Stokes (Matt Green), and the attractive, though unobtainable, Bella.

Tony believes he can design games better than the ones he sells; the problem is all his ideas are rubbish. Jeremy has played and completed every computer game ever released while still managing to have a surprising amount of luck with the ladies. This is all the more remarkable considering Jeremy regularly arrives for work dressed as gaming characters no one else has heard of. Bella is the gorgeous level-headed young assistant and the apple of Tony's eye but unfortunately she is more interested in the mysterious hacker Clint who masquerades as an asexual-cyber-terrorist but is in fact a nice middle-class boy who still lives at home with his mum.
