An Original Comedy-Thriller Series

A super-watchable new comedy awaits. The six-part comedy thriller has been created by BAFTA award winning actress and writer Gbemisola Ikumelo and BAFTA award winning actor and producer Akemnji Ndifornyen.

Black Ops is the story of Dom and Kay, who join the Met Police in the hope of cleaning up their community. Prior to their new role, they had jobs as community support officers. This job predictable and low-risk, with neither displaying any outstanding qualities to possibly be capable of something more. However, they are unwittingly thrust into the murky world of deep cover infiltration as they become part of a powerful criminal enterprise. But for Dom and Kay it quickly becomes more of a fiasco than Donnie Brasco.

Final Words

The BBC and the show's creators have made a television production that combines roller coaster adventure with beautifully observed character comedy. The multi-talented creators also used the backdrop of institutional racism, misogyny, and homophobia in the Metropolitan police and somehow made it work as a comedy.

There are also some other comedy programmes to watch out for. From sitcoms to dark comedy, you're sure to find something you'll really love on iPlayer. One that will put a smile on your face and possibly have you laughing hard is The Cleaner Series 2.
