Devoted neighbour Janice is Georgie\u0027s only other regular outside contact until he meets Amy, a pregnant teenager fleeing a violent boyfriend; he takes her in as a lodger. Touched by his kindness, she feels he demeans himself and wants him to lose weight for his own safety. Morris, however, encourages Georgie to pile on the pounds as a money-spinner for them both, arranging for him to take part in a local television weigh-in to see if he is fatter than rival claimant Big Brian. Amy is horrified, but Georgie sees it as almost a calling. Will he beat Brian or will tragedy strike the fattest man in Britain?","wins":0,"nominations":null,"casts":[{"name":"Bobby Ball","code":"nm0050347","characters":"Morris"},{"name":"Akira Koieyama","code":"nm0463511","characters":"Japanese Man"},{"name":"Yuriri Naka","code":"nm2995522","characters":"Japanese Woman"},{"name":"Timothy Spall","code":"nm0001758","characters":"Georgie Godwin"},{"name":"Frances Barber","code":"nm0053384","characters":"Janice"},{"name":"Jeremy Kyle","code":"nm2013463","characters":"Self"},{"name":"David Williams","code":"nm1419191","characters":"Mad Bob"},{"name":"Archie Lal","code":"nm0482311","characters":"Raj"},{"name":"Reba Dutta","code":"nm3539943","characters":"Nana"},{"name":"Aisling Loftus","code":"nm1528026","characters":"Amy"},{"name":"Richard Riddell","code":"nm1478846","characters":"Joe"},{"name":"Brendan O\u0027Carroll","code":"nm0639983","characters":"Father O\u0027Flaherty"},{"name":"Alice Barry","code":"nm1063475","characters":"Joyce"},{"name":"Tim Woodward","code":"nm0941000","characters":"Morley Raisin"},{"name":"Mark Chatterton","code":"nm0154179","characters":"Richard Barter"},{"name":"Claire Ashforth","code":"nm3732524","characters":"Newsreader"},{"name":"Julian Walsh","code":"nm0909720","characters":"Clive"},{"name":"Barry Austin","code":"nm2317613","characters":"Big Brian"}],"budget":null,"lifetimeGross":null,"openingWeekendGross":null,"worldwideGross":null,"keywords":[{"text":"fat suit"}],"production":[{"id":"co0178626","text":"ITV Productions"}],"prestigiousAwardSummary":null,"moreLikeThisTitles":[{"code":"tt2838984","title":"The Security Men"},{"code":"tt4826674","title":"The Journey"},{"code":"tt1065309","title":"Oliver Twist"},{"code":"tt0915463","title":"Jackboots on Whitehall"},{"code":"tt4400784","title":"Stanley a Man of Variety"},{"code":"tt2201815","title":"Mrs. Brown\u0027s Boys: The Original Series"},{"code":"tt3430548","title":"Away"},{"code":"tt3017158","title":"Comic Relief: Red Nose Day 2013"},{"code":"tt3433074","title":"Mrs. Brown\u0027s Boys D\u0027Movie"},{"code":"tt4117850","title":"Cider with Rosie"},{"code":"tt14302496","title":"Mrs. Brown Rides Again"},{"code":"tt0160509","title":"Agnes Browne"}]}
