After the resounding success of the first series, Ben Miller (Moving Wallpaper) and Alexander Armstrong (Mutual Friends) are back with their crack team of comedy writers and “script guru” Jeremy Dyson (League Of Gentlemen) for a second series on BBC One.

With their usual mix of the beautifully observed and completely barmy, expect returning favourites plus a raft of brand new characters. Among them are The White Devil, a self-important ex-pat in Africa – roaming the back roads, saving lives and fixing his hair in the wing mirror of his 4×4; Jilted Jim, dumped at the altar but still on his honeymoon, turning the lives of other newly-weds into a living hell; Dennis Lincoln-Park, an accident-prone culture buff, searching for the most valuable art works in the history of civilisation; and the Old Clubber, a forty-something, mad-for-it Ibiza veteran/company accountant.
