Premise

Each week Milton plays the part of an expert in a given field, with no ability at all in the subject. Assisting him are his good friend Anton, (Tom Goodman-Hill) whom Milton knew from an early age (though the exact scenarios differ from episode to episode), and, for the first series, Milton's sister Susan (Debbie Chazen). These two characters were first introduced in The House of Milton Jones but show no continuity from that programme. Typically two further actors would provide voices for the other major characters in the show with all the actors playing various minor characters, normally putting on different accents.

gollark: I think Linux has some way to do that.
gollark: The way you're doing it seems quite odd.
gollark: What does `checkerpos` do? Why *can't* you just return things from that?
gollark: `pos =` only assigns to the `pos` local variable inside the `checkerpos` function, which I assume is your issue.
gollark: It's generally cleaner to just *return* the new version of something.
