The family, played by Simon Bird, Tom Rosenthal, Paul Ritter and Tamsin Greig.
The neighbour 'Jim'. Played by Mark Heap, whom I first noticed playing Prince Tertius in the 2007 film 'Stardust', also highly recommended. This neighbour fears his own dog and finds himself unknowingly in the most awkward social situations, it's a remarkably character and looks like great fun to play. One moment that sticks out is when his dog gets drunk and is carried home by the boys (played by Simon Bird and Tom Rosenthal), when one asks 'Isn't he going to wake up?', Jim jumps backward in shock whimpering the words 'Is he?'. Last week saw the mum (played by Tamsin Greig) running thinking her best friend has come round to show off a new dress, she skips excitedly toward the door singing 'I'm getting married in the morning! Ding Dong? the bells are going to...' She opens the door to find Jim singing '...chime' and smiling happily.
Very awkward and absolutely legendary comedy from Robert Popper's new show.
