After Henry

Sarah hears via her mother's geriatric gossip network that Clare is secretly meeting an older man and feels that she has to find out what's really going on.

Sarah thinks she has finally found the perfect way to stop her mother from snooping in her part of the house. Unfortunately, she hasn't reckoned with Eleanor's devious behaviour.

Eleanor is undecided about the terms of her will, and, of course, sees this as a wonderful opportunity to play her daughter against her granddaughter.

A lapse of security forces Sarah to install a burglar alarm, but Eleanor, needless to say, has other ideas as to how their property should be protected.

Sarah finds herself caught in the middle as both her daughter and her mother force her to listen to endless confidences about their love lives.

A major celebration is approaching for Eleanor, and Sarah has secret plans for making the occasion memorable. But is it actually possible to keep anything secret from her mother?

Sarah plans a traditional Christmas but finds that Russell isn't interested at all. And Eleanor has her own slightly outdated take on 'traditional'!
