Bad Sugar centres on a dysfunctional, wealthy mining dynasty, with an ailing patriarch and some greedy siblings.
It's a peculiarly British take on telenovela style melodramas, played for laughs.
This pilot, written by Peep Show's Sam Bain and Jesse Armstrong, stars three of Britain's best comic actresses: Olivia Colman, Julia Davis and Sharon Horgan.
