My Almost Famous Family follows the very funny ups and even funnier downs of life in a big, raucous family and the craziness that comes with fame. By day the Swann family perform as resident house pop band on the Totally Annabelle Show, by night they’re a big, blended and sometimes harmonious, step-family. With English dad Gary, African-American mom Sholandra and between them their five children/pop stars living, singing and schooling under one roof you can expect tears, tantrums – and the occasional spontaneous musical number! With episodes ranging from stolen pigs and rock star granddads to make or break maths tests and crazy teen TV presenters, life with the Swanns may look glamorous on the surface but there’s a lot of frantic and very funny paddling going on underneath!
