The daily lives of Jimmy, his two kids and his mother in law whilst his wife is in Africa.
The series is entertaining, witty, and providing sharp, rember-able humour. The premise is kind of dramatic, so on rewatching it requires to be set aside, to fully enjoy the comedy - a former alcoholic, now divorced, moves back in with his teenager kids, to jointly look after them with his mother in law, because his ex wife went to Africa to practice medicine (and explore a new relationship with a colleague that is everything Jimmy never was). The kids are great, at sneaking around and scheming all sorts of things. Snappy, epic dialogues involving them. Celia Imrie as the stuck up professor and mother in law is quite a thing, but she has affectionate undertones, too. Comfy house, amusing stories, only downside, as mentioned, the personal issues of the father, now a striving repairman with a new girlfriend, a bartender whom he partially neglects. Best characters: the son (so far the best role that actor ever got), and the stingy mother in law. Good afternoon show.
