Mark Gatiss Doctor Chinnery: The kind, caring but yet unsuccessful vet that has killed more animals than he as actually saved, apparently something to do with a gypsy curse. Brian Morgan: Tactless but nice work colleague and friend of Mike and Geoff. Mickey Michaels: Dim….No, totally thick jobseeker and admires Pauline. He thinks he might ‘like’ her. Les McQueen: The rhythm guitarist of unsuccessful 70’s pop group ‘Crème Brulee’. He just can’t let go of the past and he always wishes he’d made it big. Al: One of the sons of the perverted newsagent ‘Pop’. Pop will only accnknowledge Al as his son because his other son, Richie, was looking after the booth when some youths stole nine Maverick bars.

She is timid and let’s herself be pushed around by Harvey and his insane habits. Martin Lee: The hiking friend and Benjamin and innocent victim of the murderous Edward and Tubbs.

Mick: The monotonous cave guide who has been emotional disturbed by the death of a young boy in the caves.
