Sky’s official synopsis of Mr Bigstuff reads: “Mr Bigstuff follows life in suburban Essex, where nervy carpet salesman Glen is trying to live as quiet a life as possible and get over his erectile dysfunction for fiancé, Kirsty.
“However, his life is completely upended when his estranged brother Lee crash lands back into his life – complete with a prescription drug addiction and a biscuit tin full of what looks like their Dad’s ashes.
“Catching up with his brother while on the run from his own troubles, reckless Lee thinks Glen will be able to help him out. But as he moves in with the couple, their perfect lives begin to unravel faster than a cheap carpet.”
Watch Mr Bigstuff on Sky Max or stream it via Sky Go and NOW.
