Cast and characters

Main

Lee Evans, as himself, a barely employed musician and everything he touches seems to turn to disaster. He does write tunes for mobile phone ringtones and has a son, Lucas, with his now estranged wife, Eileen.
Steven O'Donnell as Stuart Ponder, Lee's slobbish and disorganised best friend. He allows Lee to stay in his flat against his better judgement and soon regrets his decision. He is a double glazing window salesman and married to Wendy and had children with her.
Sophie Thompson as Heather Ollerenshaw, Lee and Stuart's fiercely neurotic landlady. She appears desperate to find a man, while also being a failed "IT" girl. Her father is in prison for embezzlement.

DVD release

The series was made available on DVD on 12 November 2001 in a two-disc set, with bonus features including 30 minutes of outtakes and a documentary on Lee Evans.^[2]
