The sitcom centres on Marcella (Roisin Conaty), an aspiring actress with a ‘distinct world view’ who despite being ever optimistic can’t quite get her work, family or love life on track.

Damien will play her long-suffering driving instructor Jon, who becomes unexpectedly involved in her life, alongside her flat mates Caroline (Caroline Ginty) and Lucy (Nina Toussaint-White) and therapist (Karl Theobold).

Also starring are Pauline McLynn as Marcella’s Mum, Francis Magee as her furious dad and Dylan Edwards as wayward brother Billy.

This will be Damien’s second comedy TV project, appearing as Anthony in Pheobe Waller-Bridge’s quirky sitcom about a group of property guardians Crashing on Channel 4 last year.

Huge congratulations to Damien on his new role, we cannot wait to see his new character brought to life and our favourite actor back on our TV screens again!
