Jack Whitehall and his dad Michael remember things very differently in this laugh-out-loud portrait of family life.

Jack and Michael open up the rich and plentiful family lore archives on topics such as Jack's nanny's enormous feet, Michael's lifetime touchline ban from Jack's prep-school and the Whitehall collection of downright weird and eccentric relatives. With family photographs and sketches by Jack himself, the result is a hugely entertaining, hilarious journey of self-discovery as a father and a son explore their relationship.

Watch out, fans of Reeves & Mortimer, Walliams & Lucas, Morecambe & Wise, there's a new comedy duo in town.
