But life gets a lot more complicated when his sister Judy has a string of rows with her husband and decides to move in with Dave. Then, just as he’s becoming resigned to his fate, Dave finds a new place to stay – but can he go through with it?Wry, warm and wonderfully written, this offbeat sitcom stars Reece Shearsmith (Inside No. 9) as Dave, Mark Heap (Upstart Crow) as Geoff, and Tom Goodman-Hill (Lewis) as Ron, with Rosie Cavaliero (Gentleman Jack) as Judy and Philip Jackson (Agatha Christie’s Poirot) as Dad.Production creditsWritten by Tom Collinson and Barnaby PowerProduced by Ed MorrishCastDave – Reece ShearsmithGeoff – Mark HeapRon – Tom Goodman-HillJudy – Rosie CavalieroSarah – Susan EarlBoss/Estate agent/Des – Phil NicholDad – Philip JacksonLiz – Nadia KamilMickey – Paul PutnerShop Assistant/Sioux/Stewardess – Helen LongworthBrian – Stephen CritchlowFirst broadcast on BBC Radio 4, 19 September-24 October 2007 (Series 1), 5 November-10 December 2008 (Series 2)© 2024 BBC Studios Distribution Ltd.
