Which scripted comedy podcast, set on a small island, follows a family of undertakers?

The scripted comedy podcast set on a small island that follows a family of undertakers is Wooden Overcoats.

Created and written by David K. Barnes, the British sitcom takes place in the fictional Channel Islands village of Piffling Vale. Siblings Rudyard and Antigone Funn run Funn Funerals, a business their family has operated for generations. Their control is threatened when the cheerful Eric Chapman opens a rival funeral home.

The series turns funeral-industry rivalry into farce, mixing village politics, eccentric residents, and increasingly elaborate attempts at sabotage. A mouse named Madeleine narrates the story, adding another layer of absurdity. That unusual premise helps distinguish it from general audio dramas or improvisational comedy podcasts.

Wooden Overcoats premiered on September 24, 2015, and concluded with its fourth season on March 31, 2022. It has 34 episodes across four seasons. The title refers to a traditional euphemism for coffins, so it is easy to confuse the name with a horror production, but the show is fundamentally a character-driven sitcom.
