Before heart-throb vampire Edward Cullen there was a lovestruck teenager with bad hair and an even worse dress sense.
That boy was Daniel, played by Robert Pattinson in Bad Mother's Handbook.
The drama, which also stars Catherine Tate and Anne Reid, will be released on DVD by ITV Studios Home Entertainment on March 22.
The Bad Mother's Handbook tells the story of three generations of women - seventeen-year old Charlotte (Holly Grainger), her mum Karen (Tate) and her Nan (Reid).
It's described as "both hilarious and wise, a clear-eyed look at motherhood and childhood, from the moment the condom breaks to the moment you hear your baby's first cry. The realisation that no two mothers are alike and that ultimately love is the most important thing of all."
Twilight and New Moon star Robert Pattinson plays 17-year-old, floppy-haired Daniel. Originally from Guildford, Daniel has just moved into the area and is feeling unpopular and awkward.

I'm not sure how they do it, but FunnyorDie.com seems to get just about every celeb on board for some kind of spoof. The geniuses who brought us Lindsay Lohan's fake eHarmony ad are at it again, this time reminding us all about Alicia Silverstone. Not to say we've all forgotten, but clearly, some Hollywood folks have (I mean, Beauty Shop was the last big movie she was involved in. And that was 2005.)
Silverstone stars with Alanis Morissette in My Mother's Red Hat, a faux indie film trailer that takes the two on a cross country road trip after Silverstone's mother dies, saying she needs to "find herself."
Naturally, her best friend (Morissette) agrees to go along with her. The trailer combines just about every indie film cliche, including the seemingly vague plot line, awkward characters, and outlandish driving montages including picking up a hitchhiker. Here it...

Before the days of Tivo, the only way to watch your favorite show was to be sitting in front of the TV when it aired; sounds barbaric, doesn’t it? In the 90’s, sitcoms ruled the airways before we became obsessed with Law & Order, CSI: Crime Scene Investigation and the countless other crime dramas and reality shows. Millions of people tuned in to watch their favorite sitcoms like Roseanne, Coach and Home Improvement where content was filled with moral values and life lessons. For years, only a few networks provided us with decent sitcoms such as Two And A Half Men, The Office and 30 Rock. Things will be changing this spring when a batch of freshly cooked up sitcoms will enter your TV lineup. With an Office & Family Guy spin-off already in production, the return of Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman as a relationship psychiatrist and ABC’s soon-to-be mega hit,...

ABC has handed out a 13-episode order to a comedy series based on MindShare's online series, which stars Chelsea Handler, Leah Remini and Jenny McCarthy as three mothers and girlfriends whose exploits are based on real-life stories of moms across the country.
