In a quiet corner of every town, down a street nobody cares about, you’ll find a Bureau of Lost Things. Here a dedicated team strive to reunite lost things with their careless owners. One such branch nestles just inside the M25, where no-nonsense overseer Veronica runs a tight ship; at least according to her (Head Office may disagree). Now we follow eager new recruit Will, cynical con-artist Cara and bureau lifer Raymond as, every episode, they grapple haplessly with a fresh batch of things. And Veronica. The Bureau of Lost Things stars Michael Keane (Dr Who, The Play That Goes Wrong), Annette Flynn (Eastenders, Lost and Found), Nick Ewans (Shaun of the Dead, 28 Days Later) and Grace Morgan (Shuffle Play, Sketchley Park). The Bureau of Lost Things is intended to be a comedy listening experience for all ages. However, Parental Guidance is recommended for any younger children.
The pressure of being Bureau scapegoat finally begins to tell on Will while Cara's lies catch up with her as she is forced to grapple with the lost purpose of a fraternal familiar.
Veronica struggles to improve team performance while a mysterious woman from the Bureau's past brings the memories flooding back.
A visitor's lost patience spells trouble for local traffic wardens, while the arrival of a tortoise leads to no end of hijinks, many of which Raymond finds upsetting.
The Bureau has reached its storage capacity, causing Will to take the initiative and add a new section. But this drastic action leads to a very unfortunate reaction in Veronica.
A regret-filled visitor arrives in search of his virginity, there is controversy over a lost umbrella and the team have to deal with a child, loose in the Bureau.
The arrival of a mysterious mink coat makes life difficult for the team, especially when Cara takes an ill-advised liking to this otherworldly object….
