It stars Gregor Fisher and Billy Boyd as Jacky Allen and Tony MacBryan respectively, two men who work for the property maintenance company 'Greater Glasgow Building Services'.
[1] Each episode mostly revolves around the dialogue of the two main characters as they discuss their lives (and unseen wives) and the things they find in the houses they clear.
Jacky and Tony are also given to re-enacting silent comedy and music hall routines, and always take a polaroid photo of themselves which they date and hide in a crevice somewhere.
As befits their personalities, Jacky's guesses are usually amusing and fanciful, while Tony's are often gruesome, even macabre.
The show signature theme by the Jam was changed for syndication, but when the show was uploaded to popular broadcasting platform Netflix it was noted to be a generic theme which merely sounded similar to the original, somewhat akin to how the Still Game main theme was changed to avoid royalties issues.
