Alice Chenery's search for sanity, sex and a soul-mate seems to have taken a step forward now she has a steady boyfriend. Script writer Douglas McVitie might not exactly set her pulse racing - actually she suspects it might even slow down a little - but he's nice, makes her feel comfortable and he loves her.
As Alice moves to London and finds new friends in emerging star, actress Fae Madison and TV producer Lloyd Drewitt it seems like life is looking up. But Alice being Alice, the doubts soon set in - do you really know in your heart of hearts what is meant to be?
Though Alice is still working at the department store, her new friends drag her into the world of showbiz. There, her encounters with heartthrob actor Jake Randall, veteran comedian Gordon Bexter, madcap Marty Cady and a German necrophiliac only serve to increase her self-doubt.

Sheer comedy craftsmanship
Initially, series 2 is somewhat disappointing. Gil has disappeared and we get a heavy dose of the cosmetics counter - the script struggles slightly. However things do improve: some of the later episodes in this series are much more interesting, as new characters are brought in. Altogether an interesting experiment this series - comedy sitting very close to tragedy and some fine acting, and it's worth holding out to 'find out what happens' because there is a conclusion, of a kind.
This was brilliant. Well worth the watch, I really enjoyed the presence of Mark Heap.
I think I will buy this. Do it - rent it out!!!
