By day, he works as a school\u2019s Online Safety Salamander. By night, he subjects himself to a relentless series of disastrous dates, convinced that persistence alone will eventually lead to love.  His misadventures become a source of fascination for his colleagues: the confident, sharp-tongued school nurse Vera (Cecilia Noble) and geography teacher Dave Douglas (Ryan Sampson). But what Kevin fails to notice is that a genuine connection has been quietly forming much closer to home.  MEET THE CAST & CREATORS \u2022 Kevin (Jake Watkins - BBC\u2019s 'I Kissed a Boy'): A lovable friend whose life never quite works out, dreaming of a Hollywood career but stuck as a Safety Salamander. \u2022 Dave Douglas (Ryan Sampson - Sky\u2019s 'Mr Bigstuff', 'Brassic', ITV\u2019s 'Plebs'): An eccentric geography teacher with the best intentions who thinks he\u2019s \u201cdown with the kids.\u201d \u2022 Vera (Cecilia Noble - BBC\u2019s 'Killing Eve', Netflix\u2019s 'Black Mirror'): A no-nonsense school nurse who acts as Kevin\u2019s anchor with tough love and emergency sausage rolls. \u2022 Creator & Writer: Asad Moghal, who drew inspiration from a string of his own real-life dating disasters to create this sharply observed, character-driven comedy. \u2022 Director: Rex Glensy, an orchestral conductor turned entertainment lawyer and filmmaker (director of 'Hill of Vision'), representing production company Aurelia Pictures. INSIDE THE DIRECTOR'S STATEMENT "Everyone has had a disaster date... My goal as a director was to take a self-deprecating view of dating nightmares some of us might have had, so that at least we can laugh at ourselves instead of crying. The lead character, Kevin is all of us."
