White Van Man was a British television series that aired from 2011 to 2012, revolving around a man named Ollie who drives a white van for his family's handyman business. The show stars Will Mellor as Ollie, Georgia Tennant (formerly Moffett) as his girlfriend Emma, and Joel Fry as his best friend and assistant, Darren.

The premise of the show revolves around the everyday adventures of Ollie, who considers himself to be a bit of a ladies' man but is actually quite clueless when it comes to women. He is often getting into trouble with his girlfriend Emma, who runs a local pub and is frequently exasperated with his antics. Meanwhile, his bumbling assistant Darren usually manages to make things worse by adding to the chaos.

Despite its somewhat clichéd setup, White Van Man manages to shine thanks to the chemistry between its leads and the sharp writing. Will Mellor is perfectly cast as the lovable but somewhat hapless Ollie, a man who is always quick with a joke but often finds himself in over his head. Meanwhile, Georgia Tennant brings a great deal of warmth and heart to her role as Emma, who is usually the voice of reason in the chaos.

Perhaps the standout performance, however, comes from Joel Fry as Darren. He proves to be a perfect foil for Ollie, with his dry wit and deadpan delivery often stealing the show. The dynamic between the three leads is electric, and it's a real pleasure to watch them bounce off each other.

In terms of plot, White Van Man is fairly episodic, with most episodes revolving around Ollie and his team taking on various handyman jobs. However, there is an overarching story that develops over the course of the series, as Ollie learns to become more responsible and mature in his relationship with Emma. While this may sound like a bit of a cliché, the show handles it with enough wit and charm to make it feel fresh.

Overall, White Van Man is a thoroughly enjoyable British sitcom that manages to be both funny and heartwarming. Its three leads are all perfectly cast and work together brilliantly, and the writing is razor-sharp. If you're looking for something light and entertaining to watch, then this is definitely a show worth checking out.

White Van Man is a series that is currently running and has 2 seasons (12 episodes). The series first aired on March 22, 2011.
