Come Home

From the makers of Happy Valley, Ordinary Lies and Trust Me, RED Production Company presents a brand new three-part drama, Come Home, created and written by Danny Brocklehurst for BBC One.

Greg and Marie have been married for nineteen years, when, seemingly out of the blue, Marie walks out on him and her three children – the last taboo of parenting.

Episode One, told from Greg’s perspective, follows Greg and their kids as they struggle to comprehend their mother’s actions. Greg tries to maintain normality as he juggles work at Farrell Motors, raising his children and coping with the trials and tribulations of dating again. But will he ever be able to move on when he’s trapped in the past?

This touching and intriguing drama will take audiences on a rollercoaster of ever changing emotions and allegiances. Multiple timeframes, viewpoints and flashbacks tell Greg and Marie’s story and force viewers to confront their own truths. How can two people that loved each other become so opposed? Can a child learn to forgive their mother for leaving them? And why would Marie make such a shocking and significant decision to change their lives and divide their loyalties forever?
