Synopsis

Lillie and Eddie are unmarried but have been blissfully happy for 16 years and have two boys; grumpy teenager Harry and Joe, a 12-year-old with a high IQ.

While Lillie wouldn't change a thing, Eddie would like nothing better than their signatures on the marriage licence.

Clint has no problem getting exactly what he wants with women, and that is certainly not a second date. However, when he meets Abbey and she refuses to submit to his usual ways, he appears to have met his match.

Can a leopard change its spots, particularly if that leopard is as addicted to beautiful women as Clint seems to be?

Then there is Babs and Dickie. Dickie is Clint's brother, but Dickie has none of Clint's ambition, and although charming, is lazy and thoughtless.

Babs' work as a child psychologist comes in handy when it comes to dealing with her own husband. The connection between them is electric, powerful and lasting.

Well, only lasting in the bedroom really. In all other parts of their lives they appear to be reading from very different pages.

Through love, passion, heartbreak and tragedy the six friends contemplate the meaning of "happily ever after" and ponder the conundrum of always wanting what you just can't have.

Married Single Other stars Amanda Abbington as Babs, Lucy Davis as Lillie, Shaun Dooley as Eddie, Dean Lennox Kelly as Dickie, Ralf Little as Clint and Miranda Raison as Abbey.
