Mickey Dunne

Synopsis
The programme stars Dinsdale Landen as Mickey Dunne, a 28-year-old cockney wide boy, gambler and womaniser who lives on his wits, loosely styled on the title character of the 1966 Michael Caine film Alfie.

The Radio Times described Dunne as: "a loner and a loser, but without bitterness. He always bounces back like a rubber ball after every disaster. Mickey’s got just one problem: his heart’s too big."
