Bureau of Lost Things

Bureau of Lost Things

In a quiet corner of every town, down a street nobody cares about, you’ll find a Bureau of Lost Things. Here a dedicated team strive to reunite lost things with their careless owners. One such branch nestles just inside the M25, where no-nonsense overseer Veronica runs a tight ship; at least according to her (Head Office may disagree). Now we follow eager new recruit Will, cynical con-artist Cara and bureau lifer Raymond as, every episode, they grapple haplessly with a fresh batch of things. And Veronica. The Bureau of Lost Things stars Michael Keane (Dr Who, The Play That Goes Wrong), Annette Flynn (Eastenders, Lost and Found), Nick Ewans (Shaun of the Dead, 28 Days Later) and Grace Morgan (Shuffle Play, Sketchley Park) with special guests across the series. Directed by Glenn Cooper, produced by Alan Devey and executive produced by Helen Green. All scripts sourced from regular attendees of London Comedy Writers and developed through the group. Writers: Glenn Cooper, Robin Bailes, Olly Allsopp, Alan Devey, Helen Green and Andy Flood. Sound Design and Editing by 29 Owls in a Studio. Original concept by Glenn Cooper, Robin Bailes and Helen Green. Sound effects from Zapsplat.com. The Bureau of Lost Things was recorded at Outset Studios in South London and is a Zugzwang production for London Comedy Writers.
