Overview
- Released on December 11, the Netflix miniseries quickly reached the streamer’s No 1 spot in the UK.
- At a Q&A, Rowan Atkinson said he “did not enjoy” filming and could “see holes” in the show, offering an apology for his bluntness.
- The story follows Trevor Bingley, now a school caretaker, who ends up caring for a nativity baby while house-sitting a wealthy London penthouse.
- Filming used multiple infants under strict time limits, with twins for close-ups and CGI to match faces on crawling doubles.
- Director David Kerr said the penthouse was a set build, and the series was co-written by Atkinson and William Davies with a supporting cast including Susannah Fielding, Sunetra Sarker, Ashley Jensen, Angus Imrie, Ellie White, Nina Sosanya and Robert Bathurst.
