They Won't Kill You is an hilarious political satire from the imagination of Michael Ross, writer of the Edinburgh hit Teacher's Playground. The show follows the misfortunes of Malcolm, a shy, bookish and quiet twenty-seven year old. He doesn't have many friends, and has never had much luck with the ladies. He's just a nice chap who wants to live his life without unnecessary stress or aggravation. Unfortunately 'Team Britain', under the watchful eye of the strict yet strangely lovable 'Team Leader', has decided that Malcolm's particular form of 'Lonerism' is a threat to national security. One day Malcolm comes home to find Tom, an unusually caring government official, who has taken a special interest in Malcolm's lack of social integration. Before he's had a chance to make a nice cup of tea, Malcolm has been whisked off to a 'Self Realisation Refuge' to learn the ways of 'Team Britain'.
