Driving back from a family barbecue Hannah and Mark dissect events, when four-year-old Finn forces them to take an emergency detour.  

The debrief is a common phenomenon – that moment when you leave a social event, climb into the car, or the taxi, or onto the bus and start to gossip with your partner about the evening's events. Hannah and Mark love a debrief, and in each episode of this new five-part series, we find them in the aftermath of an event with lots to get their teeth into. 

Writer Katherine Jakeways has been described by the Radio Times as ‘the next Victoria Wood’. Of her Radio 4 series ‘Where this Service will…’ the Guardian said “Jakeway's writing was sublime. The punchlines, the pacing, the humanity.” 

Hannah …. Rebecca Humphries
Mark ….. Tom Basden
Finn ….. Milo Robinson
Poppy …. Juno Robinson 

Directed by James Robinson
A BBC Cymru Wales Production
