The new comedy, which features comedian Jason Manford and Corrie star Catherine Tyldesley, is written and directed by Derren, the award-winning creator of Benidorm.
Mike (Jason) and Karen (Catherine) are nearly-40-somethings that are giving their relationship another go, five years after they split.
The pair were always meant to be together, but Mike’s ambition to become a professional entertainer meant that he was never at home.
Now in his late 30’s, Mike has realised what’s actually important to him – he’s given up life on the road to come back to Scarborough and give their relationship another go.
