Man Stroke Woman

Man Stroke Woman is a British television comedy sketch show directed by Richard Cantor and produced by Ash Atalla and starring Amanda Abbington, Ben Crompton, Daisy Haggard, Meredith MacNeill, Nicholas Burns and Nick Frost. In addition to being broadcast on digital channel BBC Three in the United Kingdom, all the episodes were available for streaming from the BBC website. Series 2 started in January 2007 and is also available for streaming from the BBC website. All episodes are on the streaming network Pluto TV.

Each episode of Man Stroke Woman involves several sketches, usually around themes of relationships, dating, or sex. The main cast are made up of characters within their early '20s. Five of them are British; MacNeill is Canadian. There is no studio audience or laugh track. Nicholas Burns described the show as "the antithesis of Little Britain", because "we wanted to do something more naturalistic, so if you'd just flicked over by accident you might just think you were watching a funny drama."

MacNeill has said that the format of Man Stroke Woman informed for her later work on Baroness von Sketch Show.

Chris Riley in The Daily Telegraph summarized the show as "a somewhat uneven but often funny exploration of the routine delusions and disappointments of thirtysomething life."
