Season 2
Louisa Atherton (Kerry Armstrong) is 49-years-old and spoiled rotten. When her wealthy husband Jack drops dead in the arms of another woman, Louisa thinks things can’t get worse – until she discovers that he’s left her bankrupt.
Louisa is forced to go back to her tiny home town with her tail between her legs.
As she re-negotiates her relationships with her prickly mother, Minna (Julia Blake) and recalcitrant kids, she learns to understand herself for the first time in her life.
Louisa arrives in Rainbow’s End, the only asset a ramshackle old cottage on a large block that her father left in his will.
In Season 2, Louisa has managed to make sense of her life and everyone around her.
She finally puts the cottage up for auction, but comes to the realisation that Rainbow End is her home and that she is not going anywhere.
Louisa also declares her feelings for Tibor, her neighbour ... but how will he respond?
Bed of Roses is a co-production between ABC TV, Southern Star and Ruby Entertainment and developed with the assistance of Film Victoria.
