Man Vs Baby

Bumbling dad Trevor Bingley (Atkinson) is now working as a school caretaker, but with his ex-wife Jess and daughter Maddy heading to Barbados for Christmas, he accepts a high-paying house-sitting job in a lavish London penthouse.

When no one shows up to collect the infant playing the baby Jesus after the nativity play, however, Trevor is forced to take the 'bundle of joy' with him to London, where his high-maintenance little house guest ensures a Christmas brimming with sleepless nights and explosive nappies.

Co-penned by Atkinson and Johnny English writer William Davies, the 30-minute episodes also feature guest stars Sunetra Sarker, Ashley Jensen and Steve Edge.
