BBC One - Beena and Amrit

Brand new comedy starring Meera Syal and Priya Hall.

Beena is on the hunt for a missing parcel sent from her grandparents which may have fallen into the hands of her mischievous mother. Starring Meera Syal and Priya Hall.

21-year-old Beena is young, spirited and fancy free. She’s just finished a degree in politics and the world is her oyster – until she is unexpectedly forced to move back to the valleys to look after her irresponsible 40-something mother, Amrit. Having recently divorced Beena’s stepdad, Amrit is also keen to shake things up. 

Soon enough, Beena finds herself playing referee between her free-spirited mother and her Indian, conservative extended family. It’s frustrating, but not forever and at least she can see more of her long term (but still secret) boyfriend, Idris.

We join Beena as she is on the hunt for a missing parcel sent from her grandparents which may have fallen into the hands of her mischievous mother.
