安迪（尼克·赫尔姆 Nick Helm 饰）对外一向自称是一名自由音乐人，但实际上，年过三十的他每天都过着无所事事的无聊生活。这样的日子久了，在未来中看不到一丝希望的安迪心生倦意，他决定自杀，甚至写好了遗书。就在这个关键时刻，姐姐的一通电话打乱了安迪原定的“计划”，在电话中，姐姐希望安迪能帮她照顾他年仅12岁的小侄子艾罗尔（埃利奥特·斯佩勒-吉洛特 Elliot Speller-Gillott 饰）。
就这样，安迪苍白的生命里突然多出了一个活蹦乱跳古灵精怪的孩子，不仅如此，他还对艾罗尔学校的美丽女教师一见钟情。完全不懂得如何管教孩子的安迪和人小鬼大的艾罗尔，这样一对“奇葩”的组合之间会擦出怎样的火花呢？

Unfairly written off as an attempt to replicate the cult hysteria of The Fast Show, Big Train dared to push the boundaries of a genre (the comedy sketch show) which thought it had seen it all. No, not all of it worked, but the same was true of Python, Vic&Bob and all the other groundbreakers. When it did - the manager who distracted his mutinous staff with juggling displays, the Jekyll & Hyde-type scientist, the staring competitions, Mao Tse-Tung as Bryan Ferry, it was painfully, inexplicably funny. Stick with it.
