Publisher's Summary
Love doesn't get easier when you're older but no wiser.
Maggie and John had a passionate but disastrous affair in their younger days, but it didn't last. Now in their late sixties, a surprise encounter gives them another chance to take up where they left off.
Will they manage to find the best in each other and finally get together? Or will old wounds and an awareness of their ageing bodies deter them? Will the treadmill created by the high-cost, high-pressure 21st century, and their endless other commitments and interruptions large and small, overwhelm them? Or will they take the final risk?
This delightful comic drama stars Bill Nighy as John and Anna Calder-Marshall as Maggie.
A.L. Kennedy is an award-winning writer of novels, short stories and non-fiction, an academic and a stand-up comedian.
Directed by Sally Avens.

Great performances
Loved the acting. Sweet story. Nothing complicated or mind stretching which helps when the rest of life is often the opposite.

Ahhhhhh
This is very clever a little depressing .....terrific actors. Anna Calder Marshall a marvellous voice and funny too. And of course the delightful, clever Bill Nighty he is so wonderful. I do love this book. But it’s really sad. Makes me tearful.

Great narration
I laughed out loud many times .. Bill Nighy is fabulous and Anna is also very good. The story is very relatable to us over 65s who grew up in the groovy 60’s and 70’s..peace and love ✌️
