Overview
- The four-episode Christmas follow-up to Man vs Bee is now streaming on Netflix, with Trevor Bingley juggling a penthouse gig and an unexpectedly inherited nativity baby.
- At a pre-release Q&A, Atkinson said he could "see holes" in the series, admitted he didn't enjoy filming, apologized for saying so, and stated there are currently no plans for more installments.
- To meet strict infant-on-set limits, production used identical twin "hero" babies, separate crawling doubles, and CGI face replacements to stitch performances together.
- Director David Kerr confirmed the lavish London penthouse is a purpose-built set, with filming also taking place at Piccadilly Circus, Trinity Square/Tower Hill, Myatt’s Fields Park, St James’s, and Ongar Railway Station.
- Early reactions note a leaner, more festive tone than Man vs Bee, with What’s on Netflix calling the series polished, sweet, and a strong non-romcom holiday option.
