Tommy Cooper may appear a fairly ordinary man on the surface - but he leads quite an extraordinary life.

Whether going on holiday, visiting relatives, attending a party or simply reading the newspaper, there seems to be nothing that cannot, and does not, go extraordinarily wrong.

Mixing stand-up and his trademark studio-based illusions with a series of sketches, this series lets audiences in on the daily, bumbling 'real life' of the much-loved comedy master.
