BBC Radio 4 Extra - Secrets and Lattes, Series 1, Growing Pains

Valentine's Day at the sisters' cafe sees revelations, flowers and marriage proposals.

Valentine's Day at the sisters' Edinburgh cafe sees unwanted revelations, flowers and marriage proposals. Stars Hilary Lyon. From April 2014.

Episode 2 of Hilary Lyon's Edinburgh-based series sees business booming in Cafe Culture, the leafy Bruntsfield coffee shop that Trisha (played by Julie Graham) has opened with her solvent sensible sister, Clare.

Clare (Hilary Lyon) obsessively plans a special themed Valentine's Night celebration in the cafe and rises to the commercial romance challenge. Trisha can't imagine anything more ghastly - she's not a fan of Valentine's nonsense at the best of times, but throw in her recent complicated relationship break-up in London and it really turns her off.

The sisters are delighted that business is booming, but what should they do about the staffing issue? They definitely need more help, but can Trisha persuade Clare and temperamental Polish chef, Krzysztof (Simon Greenall), that kleptomaniac teenager Lizzie (Pearl Appleby) is actually the right person for the job?

Valentine's Day duly arrives. Unexpected revelations abound, unconventional marriage proposals are made and unwanted flowers are delivered. All in all, it's not a very loved-up affair.

Directed by: Marilyn Imrie
Producers: Moray Hunter and Gordon Kennedy
