A comic tale of eccentric Michael Sleep (Pearce Quigley) who, since his darling Clea disappeared seven years ago, has lived a very ordinary life. He eats Shreddies, works in a DIY store, visits dad Brian (Michael Palin) and hopes for Clea to return. That is just the way it is, until one day dad Brian shares an old recipe involving rainwater, horse manure and more than a little alchemy. With recipe in hand, Michael sets out (albeit with some scepticism) to create Homunculi – magical prophesying spirits that can predict the future – in the hope they have the answer to his burning question, ‘will I ever see Clea again?’. Michael gets help from young workmate Kacey (Lauren Patel),an unlikely friendship that blossoms partly (but not wholly) through their mutual dislike of store manager Gordon (Crook). Their friendship adds to the frustration and intrigue of his nosy neighbours (Sophie Willan, Jon Pointing) who are obsessed with trying to find out what the hell is going on in the garden shed. 这是一个关于古怪的迈克尔·斯利普（皮尔斯·奎格利饰）的喜剧故事。自从七年前他心爱的克莉娅失踪后，他便过着极其平凡的生活。他吃着麦片，在一家DIY商店工作，去看望父亲布莱恩（迈克尔·帕林饰），并期盼着克莉娅的归来。生活一直如此，直到有一天，父亲布莱恩分享了一个古老的秘方，其中用到了雨水、马粪以及一些炼金术。拿到秘方后，迈克尔（尽管有些怀疑）开始着手制作人造人——一种能够预知未来的魔法精灵——希望它们能解答他心中的疑问：“我还能再见到克莉娅吗？”年轻的同事凯西（劳伦·帕特尔饰）也加入了他的行列。两人之间萌生了一段看似不太可能的友谊，而这段友谊的萌芽部分（但并非完全）源于他们对商店经理戈登（克鲁克饰）的共同厌恶。他们的友谊加剧了爱管闲事的邻居（索菲·威兰、乔恩·波因廷）的沮丧和好奇，他们痴迷于弄清楚花园小屋里到底发生了什么。 小先知 Small Prophets (2026) 导演: 麦肯锡·克鲁克 编剧: 麦肯锡·克鲁克 主演: 皮尔斯·奎格利 / 迈克尔·帕林 / 劳伦·帕特尔 / 麦肯锡·克鲁克 / 索菲·威兰 / 乔纳森·珀恩廷 类型: 喜剧 制片国家/地区: 英国 语言: 英语 首播: 2026-02-09(英国) 集数: 6 单集片长: 30分钟 IMDb: tt38504111
