This television comedy starring Greg Davies (Taskmaster, The Inbetweeners & Man Down), Andy Samberg (Brooklyn Nine-nine, Saturday Night Live), Taylor Lautner (Twilight films), Helen Baxendale (Cold Feet, Friends) and Andie MacDowell (Four Weddings and a Funeral, Groundhog Day) is a production that probably features Amersham the most over its 5 series.

From a car chase in the Corinium Industrial Estate to a big group dance routine in the Memorial Gardens, Cuckoo has used the varied parts of Amersham’s historic, country and town features.

The exterior of the Thompson family home is on Runrig Hill, in the adjoining parish of Chesham Bois, and features at least once in every episode.
