Moving Wallpaper

Moving Wallpaper is a British satirical comedy-drama television series set in a TV production unit. It ran on ITV for two series in 2008–2009. The subject of the first series was the production of a soap called Echo Beach, each episode of which aired directly after the Moving Wallpaper episode about its production. The second series was based around the production of a “zombie show” called Renaissance. Ben Miller confirmed in May 2009 on his Twitter account that no further series will be made.

The title, “Moving Wallpaper”, is a disparaging term applied to uninspiring TV shows, or to television in general, referring to the perception that modern television viewers are “mindless absorbers of images”, as if staring at wallpaper.
