About this episode

Having survived his unfortunate interaction with Huey's shotgun, Clarke goes into hiding, while Angela faces the consequences of her unauthorised stint undercover. Pat, Evelyn and Sita wait for an update on the future of their prank show and, over at SW11 HQ, Lawrence and Janet continue to clash as the Leader-Off enters the final stages... A true(ish) crime podcast, which sees undercover cop Pat Springleaf (James Acaster) share police wire recordings from the biggest case of his career: working to infiltrate and bring to justice the notorious SW6 gang. Back in 2013, ex-conman-turned-undercover-cop Pat was in the middle of a career-defining undercover gig - but problems beset him on all sides: the gang are getting suspicious; his wife wants a divorce; the police are demanding results; and his ex partner in crime is blackmailing him. Not an ideal situation for someone with a burning need to please absolutely everybody. In 2023, meanwhile, Pat and his producer Adams play clips to studio guests as they unpack the criminal hijinks that launched the career of the man now reasonably widely-known as James Acaster. Featuring: Chloe Petts - Nance Domhnall Gleeson - Lawrence Ed Gamb
