Sam Pinkett and Phil Bourne, Berkshire County administration officials, find their lives altered by a case of mistaken identity.

From actor/writer duo James Corden and Mathew Baynton, "The Wrong Mans" series centers on Sam Pinkett and Phil Bourne, office workers for Berkshire County Council, whose menial existence is upended by a chance phone call and a case of mistaken identity. After being sole witness to a car crash on a desolate country road, Sam answers an abandoned mobile telephone and hears a message that was clearly not meant for him: "If you are not here by 5:00, we will kill your wife." Encouraged by office mail-room delivery boy Phil that they can be the heroes of the hour, the duo soon find themselves plunged into a deadly kidnap situation. The Wrong Mans involves a world of unexpected international conspiracy and intrigue, with the mysterious Scarlett and Stevens and the enigmatic secret agent Walker at the heart of the unfurling chaos. Sam and Phil must dodge bullets and escape explosions in their quest to save not just themselves, but their loved ones--and ultimately, their whole town.—BBC ad
