What Josh Widdicombe learnt

Josh Widdicombe says writing his first sitcom was the "toughest thing he's ever done". We got Josh to tell us what he learnt from a few of his favourite sitcoms.

Arriving as a series after a successful Comedy Feeds pilot, this amiable comedy follows the misfortunes of grumpy and frustrated Josh (Josh Widdicombe) who sees no way out of his life with his flatmates, the relentlessly cheerful Owen (Elis James) and childhood friend Kate (Beattie Edmondson). A pool party invitation horrifies Josh as he can't swim ("swimming is not about fun, it's about survival"), while Kate learns that she has a reputation as a bad kisser.
