Sky 1 has just released four new pics from Yonderland , the bonkers-looking upcoming sitcom from the creators of Horrible Histories .

The eight-part series is written by and stars Mathew Baynton, Martha Howe-Douglas, Jim Howick, Simon Farnaby, Laurence Rickard and Ben Willbond, and is produced by Working Title Television. The show will also feature puppets from Baker Coogan, long-time collaborators with the Jim Henson Company.

In Yonderland, 33-year old Mum Debbie Maddox (Howe-Douglas) unexpectedly finds herself in an extraordinary world inhabited by a collection of eccentric (and usually idiotic) characters, some of whom happen to be puppets, with only an Elf by her side.

  • Louis Hofmann in Dark Creators of Dark are reuniting for "cruel reality" thriller that sounds like a mix of Black Mirror and True Detective
  • Future Games Show Smiling Friends, Monty Python, and a whole lot of milk all helped shape the comedy stylings of this upcoming RPG parody

The story begins with Debbie dropping her five year old twins off for their first day of school. For the first time in five long years, she has her days entirely to herself, and by the time she’s cleaned the house from top to bottom and become frighteningly addicted to a daytime quiz show, she starts to think she may be going mad. And perhaps she is, as a wildly enthusiastic Elf appears from a kitchen cupboard, telling her that she is needed in another world, for she is their unlikely saviour, prophesied to save the world from the dark forces that are gathering to subdue it. Debbie is convinced that there has been some kind of mistake, but nevertheless decides that whatever the Elf might need her to do can’t be any worse than watching another episode of What’s In The Box? , so she lets him drag her through a portal to the other world. As she does her best to help incompetent knights, monks who are incapable of lying and a race of people intent on firing the cleverest amongst them into the sun, the question is: can she fulfil the prophecy, and will she make it back to the real world in time for the school pick up?
