SIMILAR PICKS / A PERSONAL CONNECTION
01
Why this pick
Like Stath Lets Flats, it builds huge comedy from painfully awkward social encounters, deluded ambition and affectionate cringe, with a sharply observed ensemble and a deceptively warm emotional core.
02
Why this pick
Its mockumentary style finds the same sweet spot of inflated self-belief, workplace incompetence and deadpan humiliation, while keeping its amateur strivers unexpectedly lovable.
03
Why this pick
A compact, exquisitely uncomfortable British comedy driven by miscommunication, peculiar family dynamics and escalating social dread—ideal if Stath’s awkwardness is the main draw.
04
Why this pick
It shares Stath Lets Flats’ ability to make everyday gatherings hilariously unbearable, pairing precise character comedy with genuine tenderness toward flawed, overbearing people.
05
Why this pick
Greg Davies’s forceful comic persona and confrontational encounters offer a similarly heightened, quotable strain of British character comedy, built around one man’s confidently terrible judgment.

01 / THE STORY
Stath is an incompetent Greek-Cypriot lettings agent, working for his dad at the family business Michael & Eagle. Stath's hapless sister Sophie dreams of being a professional dancer, but holds a candle for the family's favourite employee, nervous negotiator Al. While Stath struggles not to be outshone by Michael & Eagle's top agent, ruthlessly ambitious Carole, the company struggles against the threat of 'Smethwicks' - the slick, high-end estate agent next door.
