Screened episode(s) : 1 & 2
Format : 6 x 45min

Phil, an ex-senior police chief enjoying a comfortable if boring retirement, and Ken, a divorcee and ex-special forces vet, are reunited with a gang of old friends at a funeral. At the wake, with nostalgia and booze flowing in equal measure, talk soon takes a meditative turn and the group makes a pact of Truelove that will soon have consequences on each of them.

Our take

The new series from Charlie Covell (The End of the F***ing World) starring Lindsay Duncan (Sherlock, The Leftovers) and Clarke Peters (The Wire, Treme), looks at a group of old friends in their twilight years, linked by a pact of love.
