Ade Edmondson stars in this hilarious sitcom about an aging punk rocker forced to move into a student flat with his kids - much to their annoyance

Ex-rocker Vernon (Adrian Edmondson) is a former front man for a punk rock band called The Plague. After living off his wife for the last two decades and spending most of his time in the pub, the two are getting a divorce and he has to move in with his kids. He is genuinely excited about having the chance to be young again, but Max and Milly – and their flatmate David – are mortified.

Meanwhile Bryan (Ben Elton) Vernon's best mate and a former member of his punk band, is the deputy head of a smart primary school and has a nice house, a nice car, a nice life and a good marriage - all of which, in Vernon's eyes, makes him a sad loser. Deep down, part of Bryan agrees.

Can Vernon grow up, before his kids throw him out?

It’s fifty years since punk stormed onto the music scene, and the music still packs a punch today. Jammed with classic hits from The Sex Pistols, The Stranglers, The Ramones and, of course, The Undertones, this laugh out loud comedy is a true listening treat. If you’re a fan of Bottom, The Young Ones or Vent then you’ll love this series, now with all six episodes available as a complete collection for the first time.
