Stath Lets Flats: Jamie Demetriou on Estate Agents, Cypriot Dads and kindness in comedy

Jamie Demetriou is the man behind Channel 4’s Stath Lets Flats, one of the funniest British sitcoms in recent years. As well as writing and creating the show, Demetriou plays the title character, hapless London estate agent Stath.
Demetriou talks real-life letting agents, why it was important to make sure his characters are kind to each other, and shares some hilarious stories of his Cypriot dad who influenced the show.

[@tobiassmith5550]

I know...oh my crump!

[@sophiem623]

don’t eat the house you’ll get a drippy tummy

[@starmole5000]

Jamie you're a treasure mate and one of the rarer breed of comedy writers.

[@chrisk04c]

Such a naturally funny guy! Keep doing what you’re doing Jamie, a few more seasons of Stath would be great and hope to see some other characters from you on TV in the future!

[@TheBestFilmOneLiners]

Incredible and incredibly underrated. Can't wait for season 3

[@Jo-td5vw]

Another shining star of contemporary British (and British-Cypriot!) comedy

[@stevenpremmel4116]

I haven't fallen for a sitcom like Stath Lets Flats since seeing I'm Alan Patridge as a teenager in 2002.

[@kickedinthecalfbyacow7549]

I laughed so much I spilled my energy drink

[@rferr1229]

His dad forgetting what he was going to say is hilarious 😂 Greek people are funny characters

[@samantha-janehull5840]

I just completely love Stath and all the characters. I just love everything about stath let’s flats. Jamie is the funniest and cutest guy ever! 😂 I need more series! This should go on and on! Also loved the chicken shop date with Amelia! Had been waiting so long for that! Now you just need to appear on Friday night dinner! 😍😍

[@chill579]

Is it just me, or do Natasia and Jamie exclusively talk about their dad in interviews?

[@youparejo]

Lol I swear 😂 so true

[@ellen6831]

wait till you hear what an influence is

[@shewas1984]

“I swear when my daughter’s born I’m gonna scream” 😆 🤣🤣🤣🤣😆😆

[@KC-gy5xw]

Late to the fun with this show, but I grew up in Palmers Green ("Bahamas Greek") and this just makes me cry laughing. Jamie is brilliant, his sister is a superstar, and Tom Stourton is fab in this as well.

[@SongBillong]

Such a funny guy. His stuff on KZbin is superb as well

[@csurname]

1:14 hey, I remember this from the start of the video!

[@Lauranna]

I was listening to a podcast with Natasha Demetriou and she said that their dad was recently diagnosed with dementia. That bloody sucks!

[@gglreallysucks5512]

A forgetfully illness

[@chuzzwozzer]

Many happy returns!

[@MrLetmein2011]

I love this program , he's very cute too .

[@Bea.Sted.]

Absolute legend, cant wait to see more!!

[@ryanhey3425]

You are a legend what a sound man!!! The story of the bread in the toilet killed me and it is weird but saying his eyes wonder to the wall is excellent "I don't know" killed me

[@Ian_Livesey]

Loved both series.

[@Steveoaudioandstuff]

"No Alan, you can't!"

[@spennynash]

I really need to see Jamie write a Homes under The Hammer episode....fusing my 2 favourite shows.

[@AceITH007]

Now that is something I would like to see 😆

[@thedustiev1]

Love Stath Let's Flats best comedy I've seen in a while on c4

[@OloffMusic]

One of the funniest shows ever

[@mitchtube3]

Anyone know the podcast they were in together?

[@mikejames04]

So sad they don’t make the show anymore😢 We need a 3rd series !!!!

[@sagemenson]

They're making it!

[@aishawalker5524]

The legend

[@adz4528]

It's such a great show and was cool to see the mind behind it. Keep up the great work.

[@Bea.Sted.]

Comedy genius, simple.

[@octopusmime]

this show has been a godsend to me. really helping me laugh at my own insecurities. demetriou and robert popper are great comedy writers. thank you for this!!!!

[@shaw205]

Sacha Baron Cohen's had some work done! Lookin flyyyyy!

[@fundifferent1]

Okay I have to google his dad now

[@jamesr6562]

Blimey. I never thought he'd be sympathetic to estate agents!

[@bethwalker809]

James R Letting agents not estate agents!! They are different! Estate agents are twats but letting agents are alright 😂

[@jamesr6562]

Beth Walker what’s the difference?

[@shabubbs]

James R lettings agents deal with rentals/lettings and estate agents deal with sales . No one really cares about the difference between the two other than the agents themselves.

[@vidibites]

It’s Stath’s smarter British cousin 😂

[@jakewrigglesworth1460]

Anybody know where I can cop the same corduroy blazer he’s wearing? Well nice

[@browneyedd_gyal4220]

What a guy ❤️

[@tangofoxtrot40]

He’s goodlooking actually

[@THEWKOUTOFFICIAL]

It’s so good 👏🏼

[@dstar8487]

Loaf of bread in the toilet, did you check for toilet paper!? Because if there wasn't any..... There's your answer!

[@bennypatel]

National treasure

[@DaleSteel]

I find bits funny. I think its one of those ill find really funny in a few years. When they stopped making them.

[@ShortMan_123]

To be clear, some letting agents are actually scum though ;P haha love the show

[@reubennaran6355]

Absolute g

[@conrad1402]

Is he gay? Because I'd like to propose to him?

[@funfairs__uk]

[@nicolamillar647]

He’s actually in a relationship with Steve Coogan’s daughter Clare.

[@alexconde4651]
