The show will air from 25th April, and is written by Bafta-nominated writer Will Sharpe.

The show also stars Julian Barratt, who is best known as a member of The Mighty Boosh.

Channel 4 promises that the show will swing “from the magical to the mundane to the downright mad”.

“This is a comedy about people who are struggling,” said Will Sharpe, “and the situations that arise if you refuse to admit that there are problems.”
