Here's the synopsis:

'Menston Green' has been running since 1951. Families have been gathering around their television sets every night for almost sixty-two years to catch up with the residents of IBC1′s most famous village.

But since the death of the show’s most enduring cast member, the ratings have taken a dive. As a result, Mr Cutler (the producer) has no choice but to end his tenure and hand over the reins to the next generation – a last chance saloon to breathe new life into television’s oldest soap opera.

Enter new employee Dale Delaney, a warm-hearted but dim-witted young dreamer with some unique ideas on TV drama. Together with his new recruits – Apple the first-time script writer and Clifford Bowfinger (creator of IBC1′s other smash hit, 'Blake’s Rebels') – the scene is set for a reboot of truly galactic proportions. But not everyone will survive his vivid reimagining…
