Walking disaster-area and child-trapped-in-a-man's-body Dan is blinkered by unrealistic hopes for his impending fatherhood; he's quit his much-hated job as a teacher and is applying his unique work ethic to another, more earthy profession. With Aunt Nesta and his mum now in a retirement village 'pissing my inheritance up a wall' Dan is on an increasingly desperate hunt to find a new home for his soon-to-be family. Helped by his oldest friends, uptight financial advisor Brian and the irrepressibly bonkers, serial 'entrepreneur' Jo, can Dan finally grow up to become the man he hopes he can be?

In the third episode, Dan is frustrated by the universal lack of respect for his new status as a father, and decides to join a local dads' club. Desperate to fit in, how far will 'Papa Bear' go to impress the other dads? Brian is worried about his daughter's cultural identity, and Jo adds to his stress with her box of 'things I don't understand'.
