Summary

A comedy drama about three couples: Adam Williams (James Nesbitt) and Rachel Bradley (Helen Baxendale); Pete Gifford (John Thomson) and his wife Jenny (Fay Ripley); David Marsden (Robert Bathurst) and his wife Karen (Hermione Norris).

Adam and Rachel meet and, after many ups and downs, seem to be building a happy, lasting relationship. Fate, however, intervenes to spoil Adam's happiness.
