Starts tonight on ITV1 9-30pm

Adrian Edmondson stars in Teenage Kicks, a comedy all about growing old disgracefully.

After a nasty divorce, Vernon (Adrian Edmondson) moves in with his teenage kids. A rebel in his youth (or so he thought), he can’t wait to live in their student flat to regain his newfound freedom and to ‘get down with the kids’.

Vernon has spent the last two decades living off his high-flying wife in Godalming, but now he’s back in the real world: free, with no ties and no responsibilities.

Actually, he’s alone, unemployable, and the local kids keep nicking the wheels off his car but these are just minor setbacks.

But at least now he can rekindle the embers of his glorious youth and be as hedonistic, as irresponsible and selfish as his kids.

Except his kids are mortified and can’t imagine anything worse than their seriously uncool dad moving in...

Expect laughs aplenty in this new hilarious series that's also penned by Adrian Edmondson.

I only caught the last 10 mins as it clashed with Torchwood! I'll have to give it a fair go, can't really judge it on what I saw.... but I wasn't overly impressed.

Am I right in thinking it was an 'real' laughter track on it too? If so, they must have paid the audience well.
