Dates

Jenny and Nick

Jenny is a lonely primary school teacher recovering from a disastrous broken relationship. Nick is a city boy richly endowed with both cash and secrets. On their first date they find out everything there is to know about each other, and knowing everything can be a dangerous and unpredictable business.

Mia and Stephen

Mia is putting herself around town. Stephen is a disenchanted surgeon with a surfeit of self-regard who doesn't know what he is looking for. When Mia gets under his skin, he realises that there might be more to himself than good looks and a high-flying career.

Erica and Kate

Erica is a young lesbian who can't pluck up the courage to tell her traditional Chinese family who she really is. But when she meets enigmatic Kate, she realises she can't hide forever.

David and Ellie

David is trying to put Mia behind him, but meeting Ellie is not the solution he's looking for. She's far too young, honest and insightful, and has some truths to tell he'd rather not hear.

Erica and Callum

Coming out to her brother hasn't gone well for Erica. He has reacted by setting her up on an internet date with garrulous, unmarriable Scotsman Callum. The date starts badly and quickly becomes disastrous, but somehow a weird kinship emerges.
