Life And Other Distractions

A comedy drama project for Channel 4 which is currently in development...

New 13-part comedy drama written and produced by Simon Pegg. The show will be a light drama about a family aimed at younger viewers, Pegg told The Guardian. "My involvement will be limited but I want to be a showrunner and have script control. I was interested in that age group, having grown up with shows like Grange Hill, and I wanted to do something outside my comfort zone. It's more kitchen sink than my usual stuff - having said that, any episodes I write will probably involve aliens and monsters." The production company is Big Talk.
