Damned is a British comedy television series shown on Channel 4. It is set in the office of the Children's Services department of the Social Services of fictional Elm Heath Council.
It stars Jo Brand, Alan Davies, Kevin Eldon, Himesh Patel, Isy Suttie and Morwenna Banks as the social workers and Georgie Glen as their manager. Aisling Bea plays a single mother who is a former client of theirs.
The first series premiered on Channel 4 on 27 September 2016, and concluded on 1 November 2016. In February 2017, Channel 4 commissioned a second series.
In March 2014, Sky Arts announced that it was reprising its Playhouse Presents series of self-contained television plays. Jo Brand and Morwenna Banks penned a script for what was hoped to be a pilot episode. Sky Arts aired the episode but never commissioned it to series; so Brand, Banks, and comedic writer Will Smith re-developed it for Channel 4, who announced its commission in May 2016.
