Comedy set around the antics of Jimmy Miller and his ragtag family of mountain rescue volunteers. Shambolic old rescue hand Jimmy teaches new boy Conor the ways of the hills.

Comedy set around the antics of Jimmy Miller and his ragtag family of mountain rescue volunteers. When the naive and enthusiastic Conor reports for his first day as a volunteer, Jimmy, the shambolic old rescue hand, takes it upon himself to teach Conor the ways of the hills.

Conor's education begins in the pub, where he is introduced to the small mountain community of Jules, Bill, and Bernie. No-nonsense barmaid Jules runs the pub, the Busted Femur; Bill spends every living hour looking after dogs, and his social skills have suffered as a result; and Bernie is head of operations, happy to the point of delirium in her work.

When the actual mountain rescuing begins, things go from bad to worse, and then to even worse than that.
