Will Mellor, Warren Clarke, Niky Wardley and Craig Parkinson star in this brand new BBC comedy about what real family life is like when you're holding down jobs, raising three kids, and having to deal with an irresponsible brother and cantankerous dad.

Will Mellor and Niky Wardley play Liam and Caroline Flynn, Mancunian parents in their early thirties whose kids are growing up fast. They are blessed with a rebellious teenage daughter, Chloe, and two younger sons; Mikey, who's always up for a lark, and Steve who definitely isn't. It's tough - and even tougher because they're still growing up themselves.

Liam and Caroline both find that trying to be a good parent is a minefield of dilemmas and blunders - but help is at hand, albeit in the form of Liam's wayward brother Tommy (Craig Parkinson), who never ceases to complicate matters, and their grouchy dad Jim (Warren Clarke), who believes they'll never be as good as he was at parenting. Both are on hand to offer advice which often ends in disaster.

Directed by Dominic Brigstocke (I'm Alan Partridge, Reggie Perrin, Green Wing, Smack The Pony) and written by Daniel Peak (I'm With Stupid, Not Going Out), George Jeffrie and Bert Tyler-Moore (Pete Versus Life, The Armstrong and Miller Show), this warm, authentic, hilarious series is released on DVD from 18th July 2011 from 2entertain.
