How Not to Live Your Life
On BBC Three
A high-energy sitcom built on the gap between a hapless protagonist's internal fantasy life and his actual failures, sustained by rapid-fire imaginative sequences rather than plot.
Sitcom about 20-something Don, a man with bad luck and even worse instincts. Don's overactive imagination is always in full flow in the form of quick-fire fantasy sequences as he imagines what he would really like to say.
