When posh Imelda Staunton finds out her husband's been having an affair for five years, she does what? Kick him out? No. Implausibly, she moves in with her sister Celia Imrie in a council estate. So that's a bit difficult to swallow. Anyway, what happens then is not especially exciting or original, but fun, as she learns to enjoy life and people again, especially Timothy Spall. Meg Leonard and Nick Moorcroft wrote it, and it ends up in Rome, so that's never a bad thing.
With Joanna Lumley, John Sessions, Josie Lawrence, David Hayman, Phoebe Nicholls, Indra Ové, Marianne Oldham (as the daughter, who's so much taller than Imelda she's rarely in shot).
John Pardue was the DP and Johnny Daukes edited it.
