Premise

Ten years ago, Spike (Goodman) abandoned his wife Amy (Walter), and their young daughter Rachel (Walsh), and moved to Paris with another woman. Now, Amy is abandoned again, when her lover, Tam (Malik), leaves her for his own "other woman". To make things so much worse, his "other woman" is Amy's daughter Rachel.

Amy now finds her herself alone and miserable all over again, and is even more dependent upon her friend, Tania (Griffiths), and her therapist, Ruth (Kahn).

Life gets more complicated when, out of the blue, she (literally) bumps into Spike, now single, and back in England. Can they rekindle their relationship, or are old hurts too great?
