About

Two families with nothing in common but a philandering patriarch collide in this "acerbic but heartfelt" (Los Angeles Times) British comedy. After her husband dies at his surprise party, Tess (Rebecca Front, Humans, Inspector Lewis) gets an even bigger shock when she learns he had a secret family. Now she and her uptight daughter, Cathy (Ellie White, The Windsors), must get to know playful Marilyn (Siobhan Finneran, Downton Abbey, Loch Ness) and her free-spirited daughter, Cat (Lauren Socha, Misfits, Catastrophe). As Tess struggles to process her husband's betrayal and Cathy anxiously plans her wedding to her feckless fiancé (Amit Shah, The Hundred Foot Journey), Cat tries to forge the sisterly bond she's always craved. "A very funny, oddly tender, and moving exploration of love, grief, forgiveness, and family" (The Guardian, UK).
