Man Down Christmas Special - Finding Nesta

Christmas is coming, the turkey is getting fat… and, in this case, alarmingly aggressive. Greg Davies, acclaimed stand-up comedian, Mr Gilbert in the hit TV series and films The Inbetweeners, and BAFTA-nominated star of Cuckoo, writes and stars in a seasonal special of his critically acclaimed sitcom. After a difficult year Dan is convinced he has turned his life around only to meet a Christmas thorn in his side in the shape of his aunt Nesta (Stephanie Cole OBE). He and his two faithful friends quickly discover that a farm is not their natural habitat. Also featuring Edinburgh Comedy Award Best Newcomer winner, Roisin Conaty, Edinburgh Comedy Award nominee, Mike Wozniak and Gwyneth Powell (Grange Hill). Will this childish idiot’s life finally get onto an upward trajectory… or will an unwanted teaching job and some uniquely dysfunctional friends conspire to keep this Man Down?
