It's Ian and Chloe’s wedding day and Chloe’s estranged parents are testing patience

Ian and Chloe’s wedding day is here and Chloe’s estranged parents are testing patience. Stars Richard Herring. From 2019.

Ian and Chloe’s wedding day is a typically chaotic, argumentative, loving affair. Ken eats the lip balm and Chloe’s estranged parents test Ken and Margaret’s patience.

Drawing on his own family, Richard Herring’s comedy drama, builds on the warm, lively characters and family dynamics of the first series.

His affectionate observation of inter-generational misunderstanding, sibling sparring and the ties that bind will resonate with anyone who has ever argued with their dad about who the current Pope is.

Amid the comedy, Richard broaches some more serious highs and lows of family life.
