Jack is excited about the success of his book and wants to celebrate. Karen is furious that he wants to sell the house and force her and the girls to move. Seventeen year-old Naomi is fed up with both of them and anyway, she's got other things on her mind - an older boyfriend with a car.

In this third series of writer Nicholas McInerny's autobiographical look at modern relationships, Jack and Karen are at a crossroads. Two years after he came out, they're still married, still close, have a regular date night each week and are both involved in steering their girls through their teenage years.

But time doesn't stand still and Jack wants to live openly as a gay man. He wants to find out what that could mean. He also wants to be a good dad and keep his family healthy and safe. So it's time for more negotiations with Karen and the girls to see how they can remain a close and loving family and allow each other to grow in their own different ways.
