Watch the show he did back in the early 2000s called Ideal.
He plays a drug dealer ( I deal geddit!) who never leaves the house, everyone comes to him.
It has some of the greatest characters ever made. Cartoon Head and Psycho Paul.

It seems hard to find in the US but the first series [of Ideal] is on archive.org, thanks for the heads up!

Thanks for the recommendation. I'm partway through episode 1 and like it (even though I don't use drugs any more). I'll watch all of those.

The British seem to be far better than Americans at making sitcoms about trash people, see also, for instance, The Young Ones, Bottom and the seminal Steptoe and Son.
