Witless

2016–2018 · 3 seasons

A breezy, silly caper where two ordinary women bicker and blunder through danger, keeping the laughs constant and the stakes light.

Overview: Leanne and Rhona are two ordinary flatmates whose lives are thrown into disarray after witnessing a gangland shooting. They find themselves whisked into witness protection, given new identities and left to fend for themselves in a grubby flat Swindon - and all before they can so much as collect their toothbrushes. Staying undercover doesn’t prove easy…
How it feels: Light, absurd, tense and satirical. Brisk and easy to follow.
About: Friendship, identity, crime, deception
Content: Strong language. Mild violence, gore and sexual content.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
