Title: Fear and Loathing in BBC Studios
Storyline: Disgraced, sleazy former household name Frankie Spice has an image revamp. Turning from drugs, alcohol, and violent pub brawls to piety, vitamins, and wellness — or so he says.
When hosting his failing wellness-themed teleshopping show "Vitality Vault," Frankie tests some of the stock, mistaking Ayahuasca essence for harmless vitamins. Embarking on a terrifying psychedelic trip, Frankie is confronted with his own self-hatred.
This darkly comedic short explores themes of ego, self-delusion, and the absurd nature of celebrity culture
Where did this casting call come from?
Male 25 to 41
Frankie. Nepo baby, a rampant lifestyle rotting him from the inside out, yet cocky and confident in the face of his demise. Spiritualist, self-centered and used to the finer things
Female 25 to 40
Justine. Chewed up and spit out from the industry, strong willed, hardworking and iron fisted. Produces Frankie’s show as a means to survive
Male 18 to 34
Sam. Young, contrarian, naive, and torn between workplace politics. Sam is the show's Vision Mixer
Male 25 to 45
Gary. Fickle, laddish, easy-going, confident yet lacking backbone. Gary has fast risen to TV directing but lacks confidence to stand up to Frankie
