City Skits

One hook, told city by city: how do I know you’re from Manchester? From Birmingham? From Bradford?

  • Manchester, Birmingham and Bradford editions
  • Game-style worlds built from real local streets

The idea

Local pride travels. Each episode takes a line people already say about their city and pushes it into a video-game world built from streets they recognise: the landmarks, the traffic, the late-night food spots.

The format is repeatable by design. A new city means a new script and a new world, while the hook, pacing and look stay recognisable in the feed.

A Manchester bank lobby mid-heist
The getaway crew finds a baby in the back seat
A gold Civic on a wet Birmingham street
A Birmingham underpass at night
Bradford City Hall, video-game style
A tank on a Bradford high street
