Tonight (Thursday 12th Jan 2006) on BBC4;
Rich Hall's Cattle Drive
1/6. Comedy starring Rich Hall and Mike Wilmot.
Rich and Mike fall foul of the law while apprehending a burglar, and are
arrested by mounted police. Rich finds himself strangely attracted to one of
the police horses and embarks on a plan to steal them with the hapless Mike
in tow.
The pair set off in full cowboy gear, heading west to live out their cowboy
dreams. Unbeknown to them, the horses are of significant importance to the
mysterious Truesdale (Ralph Brown) who employs the animal rights activist
and bounty hunter U Horst Nightmare (also played by Rich) to get the horses
back by any means possible.
