MR. BIGSTUFF (SEASON 2) CATCHING UP WITH RYAN SAMPSON and HARRIET WEBB

Who’s ready for more Mr. Bigstuff?

The Bafta winning comedy series returns for Season 2 on Thursday August 14th only on Showcase and streaming exclusively on StackTV in Canada.

The boys are back! BAFTA-winner Danny Dyer ( Rivals),  Brassic favourite and series creator Ryan Sampson ( Plebs), and  Big Boys star Harriet Webb ( I May Destroy You) return for Season 2 of Mr. Bigstuff and this season is edgier than ever!  

They thought their dad Don was dead, turns out he just left them! Season 2 picks up two weeks after the shock news that the brothers’ dad’s not actually dead, and Lee and Glen are handling it very differently. But, with chaos mounting and questions piling up, the brothers unite on a mission to track him down. Meanwhile, Kirsty’s taking charge in the bedroom and the boardroom, but one badly timed kiss – and a mysterious blackmailer – threaten to bring it all crashing down. With secrets spilling and tempers flaring, it’s only a matter of time before the family blows up – again. 

Guest stars this season include Rula Lenska ( Coronation Street), Linda Henry ( EastEnders), and Alan Ford ( Snatch). Also joining Season 2 are Sampson’s  Brassic co-stars Tom Hanson and Parth Thakerar, as well as Shobna Gulati ( Coronation Street), Shaun Williamson ( EastEnders) and David Mumeni ( Stath Lets Flats). Returning cast include Adrian Scarborough ( Gavin & Stacey), Fatiha El-Ghorri ( Taskmaster), Victoria Alcock ( Bad Girls), Ned Dennehy ( Peaky Blinders) and Clive Russell ( Ripper Street).

 Mr. Bigstuff is created and authored by Ryan Sampson. The series' executive producers are Ryan Sampson and Matt Lipsey, Anil Gupta for Sky Studios, and Tom Miller and Sam Myer for Water & Power Productions. Emily Allen is the Commissioning Editor from Sky Studios, and Hayley Sterling is producer.
