Ep 1. Episode 1

Life's Too Short is a comedy show that aired on BBC Two in the United Kingdom between 2011 and 2013. The show follows the life of Warwick Davis, a dwarf actor who is struggling to make a name for himself in the entertainment industry. In the first episode of the show, appropriately titled "Episode 1," viewers are introduced to the character of Warwick Davis and his struggles.

The episode begins with Warwick Davis looking at himself in the mirror and trying to psych himself up for the day. He talks about how difficult it can be to be a dwarf actor and how he has to work twice as hard to get half as far. He then gets a call from his agent, who informs him that he has an audition for a new film that is shooting in London. Warwick is thrilled and excited to have the opportunity, but also apprehensive as he knows that the competition will be fierce.

On his way to the audition, Warwick runs into a number of obstacles, including getting stuck in a lift and getting caught in the rain. Despite these setbacks, he manages to arrive at the audition on time, only to find that he is not the only dwarf actor there. He meets a number of his competitors and quickly realizes that they are all more experienced and better-known than he is.

Despite feeling disheartened, Warwick gives the audition his all, but doesn't receive the part he wanted. He and his agent then attend a meeting with some TV executives, where they try to pitch a show based on Warwick's life. The executives are initially skeptical but are won over by Warwick's charm and charisma. They agree to produce a pilot episode of the show, which Warwick is ecstatic about.

As the episode comes to a close, Warwick attends a charity event for little people, where he meets a number of other dwarfs and is reminded that he is not alone in his struggles. He then attends a dinner party with some friends, where he reflects on his day and the challenges he has faced. Despite everything, he realizes that life is too short to worry too much about what other people think, and that he needs to focus on being true to himself and his dreams.

Overall, this first episode sets up the premise of the show and introduces viewers to the character of Warwick Davis. It does a great job of highlighting the challenges that he faces as a dwarf actor, while also showcasing his resilience and determination. The episode is funny, charming, and a great introduction to the series.
