Nathan Blakely was a popstar. But he was useless, died, and was reincarnated. The comedy about Nathan’s adventures in the afterlife returns for a second series with Daniel Rigby and Diane Morgan, and guest-starring Romesh Ranganathan.

In the second episode, Nathan is brought back to life as an eel in a river in Norfolk. He’s desperate to join the cool adolescent eels as they migrate across the Atlantic to spawn in the Caribbean. But it’s too much too soon for Nathan. Will he ever learn to do the right thing and make it back to human again?
