Every Thursday. 9pm. Tom and Evie watch a film together in her garage. Evie lovingly decorates the space to match the film of the week - from a yellow brick road for The Wizard of Oz to a space craft for Alien. It's magical. They’re there for the love of the movies. Or at least, that’s what they tell themselves.
In reality, Tom is madly in love with Evie. What he doesn’t know is that Evie is in love with him too. But when Tom accepts a job at the other end of the country, their happily ever after comes under threat. He's leaving in six weeks. That means Evie has six film clubs left to tell Tom how she feels, or risk losing him forever.
Evie is going to have to navigate all of this amongst the chaos of her family home – her eccentric and unconventional mother, Suz, and her younger sister Izzy. A trio of women full of love, and dysfunction, in equal measure.
A piercingly funny and utterly heart-warming screenwriting debut from two of Britain’s most exciting voices.
When office worker Plu is fired from her job after hitting a leering senior, she's left in state of distress as she has her mother and younger sibling to take care of. In low spirits, she meets Ray, a beautiful and wealthy-looking woman who proposes she opens a company called Unlimited Company, a company that will do absolutely anything as long as clients have the money to pay them. Her family owns a building available for rent, and she'd be happy to be a partner.
Whether it's the beauty of the woman before her or her drunkenness that persuades her, Plu doesn't know, but she's soon opening up applications for employees with unpredictable talents. Soon, the office is filled with beautiful people, chaos and headache-inducing challenges. What starts as a mess of confusion gradually becomes a second home as relationships between coworkers begin blossoming into something beyond work.
