I'm late to the party but in all fairness I usually read a lot and don't watch many shows. I recently discovered Cuckoo and thought Greg Davies was brilliant so I decided to watch Man Down. As a child I absolutely loved Drop Dead Fred so I was excited to see Rik Mayall as Dan's father and he was hysterical. It's a shame he passed away IRL and was only in season one. Greg Davies as Dan is funny as hell to watch and I'm looking forward to watching his stand up shows. Mike Wozniak (Brian) and Roisin Conaty (Jo) play Dan's best friends and they both add to the hilarity. Stephanie Cole as Aunt Nesta is amazing and shout out to Alfie Davis who plays Dennis, one of Dan's students.
