Stepping Up is about Josh: an over-enthusiastic stepdad bringing well intentioned chaos to his new - and previously harmonious - family unit.
Every day behind closed doors in Britain a stepdad negotiates the tricky paradox of bringing up another man's kids: locked in several love triangles, the partner and the ex, the kid and the biological Dad, there's no easy way to play it. Josh is desperate to prove his worth as the perfect role model to his stepchildren, the ideal partner to his girlfriend, and as an all-round ‘Good Bloke'.
Unfortunately for Josh, absolutely everyone in his life is totally fine and would much rather he stopped trying so incredibly hard to help and impress them all the time. No-one needs him to, but Josh is 'stepping up' anyway.
