One is a perfectionist carpet salesman, the other an alpha male with a prescription drug addiction. As circumstances have the two crossing paths again, their lives begin to unravel before they know it.

Sky’s new comedy series Mr Bigstuff is streaming on BINGE from August 1, which also offers more content from the UK’s Sky network alongside Foxtel and Foxtel Now. The service still offers a 7 day free trial, so new customers can explore heaps of TV shows before signing up. 

You can then choose from three streaming tiers to watch the latest movies and BINGE series on demand. A Basic subscription with Ads allows you to stream on one device. 

A Standard Plan enables you to enjoy your favourite shows or movies on two devices. A Premium Plan lets you stream on four simultaneously. Both Standard and Premium also offer 4K streaming on selected content. All BINGE plans have no lock-in contract.

Another option for watching the new show is Foxtel, airing every episode via FOX8. More than trending comedies, Foxtel also offers live TV with sports streaming, the world’s best dramas, and movie channels for watching blockbusters.

FOX8, the channel that airs the Mr Bigstuff series, is part of Foxtel Plus, the cheapest Foxtel entertainment package that already includes the previously separate Kids and Favourites packs, increasing the channels offered to over 70. What’s more, all Foxtel bundles now include the Multiscreen feature. 

If you’re only after a streaming app rather than a pay TV service, all episodes are also going to be on Foxtel Now, which you can try with a free 10-day trial if signing up for the first time. 

The Foxtel Now base pack called Essentials pack is only $25 per month. Premium packs like Drama Extra, Sport, and Movies can be added to your base plan if you’re looking to access more content.

Glen (Ryan Sampson) is a carpet sales manager who is content in living an ordinary, mundane life in the Essex’s suburbs with his fiancée Kirsty (Harriet Webb). Glen is a perfectionist with an erectile dysfunction; Kristy secretly and habitually shoplifts – despite these, they’re relatively happy. 

Everything changes for the couple when Glen’s estranged brother Lee (Danny Dyer) returns, bringing along with him a nasty past that’s quickly catching up with him. When circumstances force them to live together, it doesn’t take long before their lives begin “to unravel faster than the weave of a cheap carpet.”

The new comedy is written and directed by Ryan Sampson, co-produced by Sky Studios and Water & Power Productions, and executive produced by Sky Studios’ Anil Gupta and Jon Mountague and Water & Power Productions’ Tom Miller and Sam Myer. Hayley Sterling from Sky Studios produced the series.
