About In Bed with Medinner
Mills wanders around his flat, telling ludicrous fictional anecdotes about his showbusiness friends and reminiscing about his time as a television producer. These stories are illustrated by genuine clips from the ITV archives, which, interspersed with Mills' own heavily-contrived commentaries and bizarre non-sequiturs, come together to reveal surreal fictional backstories.
