Tina and Turner are the perfect couple. Like everyone else, they use an app called Q to manage their love and sex life. Via their smart watches, Q can track everything from their body temperature to their work diary, using extensive data and ever-responsive algorithms to understand their mood, desires and turn offs, and cue their partner to act accordingly. But when Tina and Turner decide to ‘go analogue’ and delete Q, it’s far from plain sailing. Can they find happiness without the app? A near-future comedy about data and dating. Developed through the Wellcome Trust Experimental stories scheme. Tina ..... Georgie Fuller Turner ..... Edward Easton The Narrator ..... Gwyneth Keyworth Georgie ..... Elinor Coleman Rob ..... Ian Dunnett Jnr The Groom ..... Justice Ritchie With special thanks to Dr Ricky Nathvani and Maxine Mackintosh. Written by Tom Wainwright Directed by Anne Isger Sound Design by Pete Ringrose
