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 was 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]
