Real Families: The Hilarity of Dad Life

In episode 1 we meet the Wisemans and Daltons with dads Keith and Jonathan struggling to handle the kids whilst mum takes a break. Keith struggles to get the hang of the weekly food shop and Jonathan can't seem to be taken seriously when attempting to get the kids ready for school.

In each episode, two mums pack up their things and move out of the family home for a week, leaving two spectacularly inept Dads to look after the kids. Dad stays at home, mum stays in a luxury health spa. Whilst examining and debating everything that dad says or does, mum’s only communication comes twice a day: anonymous improvement notes arrive after breakfast; a dreaded phone-call comes last thing at night. Guided by an objective narrator, the viewer is shown the big dramas without ruining the action.
