It’s day 14 of the stakeout, and the crew are getting restless. Lead by experienced police officer DCI Thomas Cooper, a man who is galvanised by his own ego and the strutting figures of The Manosphere who he watches online, nerves are getting frayed and personalities are beginning to clash.

With a host of intriguing and engaging characters including an old skool informant, a fast-tracked new recruit and an unassuming pizza-delivery man, the unexpected arrival of one of Europe’s top jewel thieves reveals their true colours.

Exploring themes of masculinity, friendship and hierarchy, The Stakeout promises to be a hilarious, thrilling and timely look at male identity in today’s society.
