Episode 5 of 6

Unexpectedly reunited, the family of four go down memory lane - good and bad. Starring Alison Steadman. From 2020.

Ian has now taken refuge at Ken and Margaret’s, as well as sister Jane.

Unexpectedly reunited, without partners or offspring, the family of four go down memory lane – good and bad. Then Pete appears on the doorstep with urgent news about Holly.

The third series of Richard Herring’s comedy drama builds on the warm, lively characters and sharply observed family dynamics of previous series.

His affectionate observation of inter-generational misunderstanding, sibling sparring and the ties that bind will resonate with anyone who has ever gone back to live at home, after the age of 40.

Richard Herring is a comedian, writer, blogger and podcaster.
