"Outnumbered" follows the daily chaos of family life with two parents and three young children locked in an unequal contest. Containing strong elements of improvisation, this comedy is an honest portrayal of the well meaning parental incompetence that happens in most homes, as Mum and Dad attempt to raise their kids with the minimum of emotional damage for all concerned. From the creators of 'Drop the Dead Donkey', Andy Hamilton and Guy Jenkin, 'Outnumbered' is quite unlike any other family comedy seen before. - Director:

The second series of 'Outnumbered' sees Pete (Hugh Dennis) and Sue (Claire Skinner) continue to ride the rollercoaster of daily family life; work, money, elderly relatives, 'super mums' and of course, the children. Karen (Ramona Marquez) has developed a keen sense of morality and an astute eye for financial responsibility, Ben (Daniel Roche) employs tactics that would make Alistair Campbell blush when running for Class Rep and Jake (Tyger Drew-Honey) insists mum and dad should back up his shaky alibis for his girlfriend's whereabouts. 'Outnumbered' captures family life at its most deliciously chaotic. - Director:
