Life Of Riley: Caroline Quentin stars in new BBC One sitcom

Caroline Quentin returns to BBC One in brand new six-part sitcom Life Of Riley, currently in production for transmission in the New Year.

Maddy’s just got married again. And she’s about to find out what happens when two families collide.

Suddenly she finds herself presiding over a modern-day extended family: children, step-children, step-siblings and half-siblings, with a few ex-partners and in-laws thrown in.

Maddy is like Roseanne but thinner, like Seinfeld but with dirtier trainers, like Victor Meldrew – but she does believe it.

In Life Of Riley, Maddy discovers that parenting has never been so difficult or complicated and she finds herself outwitted at every turn by people a quarter of her age.

    omgggg he iss veryyy good looking :L lol

  8. Ms. Hopey says:

    Serious?!?!
    Hes meant to be playing a 13 year old.
    He doesn’t look 13,
    Or act 13.
    Or do anything to make people think hes 13.
    Although, he seems to have gotten people interested in watching.
    ^^^^^^^^^ Comment above mine.
    I refuse to comment on his attractiveness,
    Cause people on the internet who do tht are weird.

  27. Fran says:

    But you said he was ok looking even if Danny is better looking (he isn’t, they’re equal) Adam’s still cuter than you made out :P

  28. Fran says:

  31. Paula says:

  44. ria mason says:

    i don’t think people are sad cos they think some one is fit
    its probly quite nice for people like jordan and taylor to hear that girls round the country think that they’re fit to be honest
    so bye all xx

  45. Amy Banda says:

    Actually, they must get annoyed with it all. Just saying. I mean, I would get annoyed if ppl kept saying stuff about me all the time, sure firstly it is flattering but come on, it must get tiring after a while! Don’t any of you think so? By the way I was only saying that stuff cos I am in a random mood so yeah…biiiibiiii x

  46. Amy Banda says:

    Oh and I think Ria is right cos it isn’t sad to think someone is fit lol, I just thought I would throw that in as well… x
