CSI: Luton

From Uncyclopedia, the content-free encyclopedia
Jump to navigation Jump to search

CSI: Luton is the first of the popular series of detective dramas, CSI to be set in the town of Luton, England, UK indeed it is only the second series to be based outside the United States. It was originally intended that this series be based around the better known city of London however, owing to the sheer amount of serious crime that took place in the town Luton was chosen instead. The program deals in a very realistic manor with much of this criminal activity including the vandalisation of street furniture (lamp-posts, pillar-boxes, benches, etc.), playing of ball games in areas where signs command that ball games not be played, teenagers writing their names in wet concrete and perhaps most controversially of all – numerous incidents of bicycle theft by multiple men named Nathan.

Premise[edit | edit source]

It has long been accepted by people in the know that having a plot is a waste of time, if people wanted stories they would read books and as no one has read a book since 1994 there is no point in really bothering with narrative. The makers of CSI: Luton realised this and so filled the drama with stuff that people really want to watch, like sex, sex, sex, expolsions, violence and LUTON

Why Luton?[edit | edit source]

In their press release dated 05 April 2009 the makers of the program gave a number of reasons for their choosing Luton as the location for this program:

1. The historic victory of Luton Town Football Club in the Johnston’s Paint Trophy of 2009 which attracted much interest in the town from all over the world, indeed the universe.

2. The fact that Luton begins with ‘L’ as does Las Vegas, the location the first CSI.

3. The fact that Crime is illegal in Luton, this makes fertile ground for police drama.

4. Luton is famous for hats, people like hats, therefore people like CSI: Luton - simple as!

Funding[edit | edit source]

The show is funded by drug, prostitute, and human trafficking money.

Title Music[edit | edit source]

Keeping with the recurring theme of using songs by English band The Who in the opening credits, CSI: Luton will use the song 'Borris the Spider'. It is thought this may be the basis for the introduction of the new Supernintendendo, Agent Borris Wenham, who will make his first appearance in episode 10. Agent Borris is set to be the nemesis of Appelby and Philby as he is their superior and often quashes proposals made by them, such as Comical-Hat-Fridays.
