PRIMARY school teacher Paul Maddens (Martin Freeman) is charged with the biggest challenge of his life - mounting the school's musical version of the nativity.

Competing against the posh local school for the honour of best reviewed show in town, the stakes are raised when Paul idly boasts that his ex-girlfriend Jennifer (Ashley Jensen), a Hollywood producer, is coming to see his show with a view to turning it into a film.

The only trouble is, they haven't spoken in years.

Comedy NATIVITY (U) also stars Ricky Tomlinson and Alan Carr.
