Stath Lets Flats star Jamie Demetriou is getting his own Netflix special. The streamer has commissioned A Whole Lifetime with Jamie Demetriou, which the four-time Bafta winner will write and star in.
The special will follows Demetriou as he “takes the audience on a journey from birth to death through the ever adored medium of song and sketch – unpacking the most crucial, embarrassing, heartening and ultimately futile stages of a life lived in the anxious modern day.” Each stage of life will see Demetriou play a difference character, with UK comedy talent such as Ellie White, Sian Clifford, Jon Pointing, Kiell Smith-Bynoe and Katy Wix joining him.
White, Smith-Bynoe and Wix played roles in his award-winning Channel 4 comedy Stath Lets Flats. BBC Studios Productions and Guilty Party Pictures, the company launched by The Inbetweeners star Simon Bird and Jonny Sweet, are co-producing.
Josh Cole, Head of Comedy, BBC Studios said: “Jamie is an exceptional creator and performer. It’s a testament to his talent that in just one hour he will take us on an excruciating, hilarious, brilliantly observed journey through modern life”.
