BBC Radio 4 - Teatime, Episode 4

Heart to hearts, painting and events spiralling out of control.

Donna and Joe have a heart to heart, Vicky and Rav paint a room, and events spiral out of control. Stars Sam Spiro. From 2020.

There’s an awkward atmosphere in Vicky and Rav’s house, as Joe and Donna sort through the boxes in the garage and divide up the last of their belongings, remnants left over from their failed marriage.

As they talk about old times, Vicky and Rav are upstairs redecorating their spare room, and talking about the future. 

Meanwhile, Lisa and Uncle Bob are on tea-cooking duties. Bob can handle it, but for Lisa, it’s genuinely the challenge of a lifetime. 

So: Joe and Donna have a chat in a garage, Vicky and Rav paint a bedroom wall, and Lisa and Uncle Bob cook some baked beans. 

Needless to say, events quickly spiral out of control.
