Leon the Pig Farmer
Available on Prime Video, Tubi TV, Amazon Freevee, Plex
Mark Frankel, Brian Glover, Gina Bellman, Maryam d’Abo and Connie Booth star in hilariously offbeat and highly acclaimed comedy that's not quite kosher! Leon Geller, a sensitive, angst-ridden Jewish boy, has reached a point of crisis. Disgusted by his job with a London real-estate agent, he gives it up to work in the catering business. Equally frustrated by a thwarted romance, he throws himself into an intense affair with Madeleine, a non-Jewish, slightly unhinged artist he befriends after a near-fatal collision. These developments do not please Leon’s family. Then, he learns an unimaginable truth: he owes his existence to artificial insemination, and thanks to a mix-up at the sperm bank the donor was Brian Chadwick, a pig farmer from Lower Dinthorpe, Yorkshire. In deepening turmoil, Leon decides he must now get to know his biological father – making yet more extraordinary discoveries in the process!
