Hitmen

2020–2021 · 2 seasons

A breezy, silly caper where bickering and botched jobs keep the stakes low and the laughs frequent.

Created by
Joe Markham, Joe Parham
Genres
Comedy, Action & adventure, Crime
Starring
Sue Perkins, Mel Giedroyc, Asim Chaudhry
Overview
Having stumbled into a career in contract killing, misfits Fran and Jamie are not your typical killers for hire. Working out of their scruffy van, each episode follows the hapless duo as they try to carry out their latest hit, inevitably derailed by incompetence, bickering, and inane antics. As each hit goes south, our (anti)heroes are thrown into one bizarre misadventure after another, each full of oddball characters and unexpected dilemmas.
