A Touch of Cloth
Cloth is coming to wipe away crime.
Created by Charlie Brooker, Boris Starling
On Sky One
A high-spirited British sitcom that deconstructs police-drama clichés through absurdist parody, treating genre conventions as the real subject rather than the crimes themselves.
Hannah plays DI Jack Cloth, who is called in to investigate an apparent series of serial killings alongside his new partner, DC Anne Oldman, described as a "plucky, no-nonsense sidekick". Playing with the cliches and conventions of British police dramas, subplots include Cloth dealing with visions of his dead wife and the bisexual DC Oldman coming to grips with her feelings for both her female fiancee and Cloth.
