Infobox instructions (only shown in preview)

People Just Do Nothing is a British television mockumentary sitcom, created and performed by Allan "Seapa" Mustafa, Steve Stamp, Asim Chaudhry and Hugo Chegwin.

The programme follows the lives of MC Grindah, DJ Beats and their friends, who run Kurupt FM, a pirate radio station broadcasting UK garage and drum and bass music from Brentford in West London.

The programme originally began as a series of online shorts that became popular enough that the group were asked to make a pilot episode for BBC3's Comedy Feeds. The first series was released on BBC Three in July 2014, with the fifth and final series airing on BBC Two in 2018.^[2] A film continuation, People Just Do Nothing: Big in Japan, was released in August 2021.

In 2017, the show won the BAFTA award and Royal Television Society award for Best Scripted Comedy.^[3][4] Many of the actors in the show have gone on to tour as a musical act, in character as their personas from Kurupt FM.
