BAFTA-winning comedian stars in new comedy coming soon

Double BAFTA-winning comedian Romesh Ranganathan (The Misadventures of Romesh Ranganathan, The Cynic) writes and stars in new comedy-drama Avoidance, about a man with severe conflict-avoidance issues who runs away with his son when his wife announces she’s leaving him. 

Newly separated Jonathan (Ranganathan) has no home, no friends and no ambition. Can a slightly useless single dad find some much-needed backbone? This warm-hearted comedy co-stars some of the biggest hitters on the current UK comedy scene, including Jessica Knappett (The Inbetweeners, Ghosts) and Mandeep Dhillon (After Life, Peacock).

Avoidance S1_Ep6. Picture shows: Jonathan (ROMESH RANGANATHAN) and Death (SEB CARDINAL) Photographer: Colin Hutton

Don’t miss Avoidance’s first season, starting Thursday 14 September, on BritBox.
