he creator, writer and star of Enterprice (BBC One, 10.50pm), Kayode Ewumi, rose to fame playing a deluded “triple threat” rapper, dancer and actor in his hit web series #HoodDocumentary, becoming a meme in the process. After the BBC picked up #HoodDocumentary in 2016, Enterprice followed in 2018, then a small role last year in Jamie Demetriou’s consistently bonkers Stath Lets Flats on Channel 4, as an estate agent whose property boasted “no doors, just ropes”. Ewumi spoke rapturously this month about growing up on the likes of Hollyoaks and Doctors, as well as his love of Donald Glover’s Atlanta, with its occasional “wait, what?” moments in which disbelief is not so much suspended as discarded. It is heartening, then, to see him continue to marry the kind of storylines that would not be out of place in soapland (kidnappings, burglaries, medical crises) with a dash of Glover-style surreality – as well as his own playful, heart-filled writing – in this second series of Enterprice. Now re-airing in the Fleabag slot after premiering on iPlayer earlier in the year, the series sees him reprise his role as Kazim, one half of the fledgling south London delivery service Speedi-Kazz. While Kazim is all about the hustle, his business partner, the former medical student Jeremiah (Trieve Blackwood-Cambridge), is more cautious, his mum remaining constantly and loudly disappointed by his decision to drop out of university. Think of it as akin to a young, black Only Fools and Horses – but weirder. In the first series, the pair were almost divided by their different backgrounds and varying approaches to business, but now they are back – and stronger than ever. Kazim suggests hiring an underling for their business (“We’ll just pay them six wings and chips”). After all, he is, as he tells two thoroughly uninterested girls on a double date with Jeremiah, merely “trying to get Mummy out the ends and put her in a Benz”. When a waiter suggests he reconsider his choice of expensive wine, Kazim loudly accuses him of discrimination (“Us black people, we like to bring each other down”), before clocking the price and frantically searching for the cork. Jeremiah, meanwhile, is still pining for his ex, Layla (Thea Gajic), and, being a sentimental guy, paints her a portrait that looks like something a year 3 pupil might have created. It sets the tone for a series in which business and personal quandaries are constants. As in Atlanta, where invisible cars exist and Justin Bieber is black, there are many moments intended to make you go “Huh?” – not least an incident involving a fake doctor wandering into a hospital, which makes the NHS seem even more beleaguered than it already is. The addition of the brilliant Fatou Sohna as Simi, a schoolgirl who tricks the friends into abetting a burglary, leads to an intriguing plotline revolving around Hackney kingpin Mustafa (Dwane Walcott). Rather than painting the goings-on in the Fagin-esque gangster’s world as cartoonishly sinister, Ewumi adds a touch of social commentary; the reason for Mustafa’s control over his estate is shown to be the help he offers to local people, who give him money in the hope that he will gee up the Home Office to look into their immigration issues. In return, he orders his gang to look after them. With a light touch, Ewumi also considers the plight of office cleaning staff and their awful bosses. Social struggles aside, Enterprice is the kind of series you can’t help but smile at; in a later episode, the pair make a song to promote their business, to the tune of Biggie Smalls’s Juicy: “It was all a dream, Jeremiah and Kazim, we’re the Speedi-Kazz team, we deliver the goods you need to your front door … but we don’t deliver crack cocaine, no heroin, no crystal meth, no horse tranquillisers.” The later addition of a Nigerian love interest for Kazim, Ire, also allows Ewumi to incorporate his own background further, in joyous fashion. And then, of course, there is that endearing strain of soapiness. Although the boys’ business, love lives, stability, families and safety are all on the line at some point or another, with a string of highs and lows through these five episodes, one constant is their unbreakable bond. The final episode is titled The Mitchell Brothers, but this pair are far more lovely.
