Film Description

Jack Dee (who also scripted the series), stars as Rick Spleen, disillusioned stand-up comedian and writer whose career has gone the way of corporate events and second-rate daytime chat shows. And he's stuck with a lousy stage name that he chose twenty years ago. Joining him are his quick-talking American co-writer Marty, his unflappable partner Mel, teenage daughter Sam and her feckless boyfriend Ben, and his unenthusiastic Eastern European home help Magda.
