Fiona hopes to rekindle her relationship with her mother.

Fiona hopes to rekindle her relationship with her mother – but has Annie reformed? Stars Susan Calman and Ashley Jensen. From 2017.

Susan and Fiona are grown up sisters who live together. But that's all they have in common. Sisters tackles the painfully funny world of the love/hate relationship you can never escape.

With her five time convicted criminal mother Annie on day release from prison, Fiona decides it's a good opportunity to rekindle the mother/daughter relationship she has missed for the past three years. After all, Annie is a reformed character. 

Susan is more cynical about whether their mother is capable of changing, but joins in the expedition as long as Blake drives the van they have had to hire - largely because he is the only one capable of reaching the pedals.
