Summary:
When Pauline Paradise, (60), (Alison Steadman) retires from her job as a lollipop lady and returns home, she looks around to see what her future holds. And doesn’t like what she sees. A non-communicative husband “silent” Ken (Duncan Preston) and the endless demands of her beloved, adult children and their offspring. So this quintessential family woman – the matriarch of the family and everybody’s rock – decides to walk out on her life. She doesn’t go very far though – just a few roads away to live with her sister, Rowan, who’s led a very different life to Pauline. As young women, Rowan married “up” and Pauline married “down”. Pauline fancies a bit of what Rowan has and sets about getting it… but is it as easy as that…? Pauline’s walkout has a massive, emotional and extremely funny impact on all the relationships around her. So in each episode, while following Pauline’s journey we will also explore the other marriages in the family – focusing on a couple per week.

Following the date, Ken realises with urgency what he must do to try and win Pauline back. Pauline is having some some reservations about the choices she’s made about Peter and Ken. Kevin offers Pauline and Ken a weekend away in the hotel that they spent their honeymoon in, and Ken waits to see whether Pauline will join him at the train station. Sarah decides to accept Kevin despite all his flaws.
