Created by and starring Phoebe Waller-Bridge this is a very modern comedy about a group of 20-somethings living together in a disused London hospital. Ukulele-playing Lulu (Waller-Bridge) is kooky but desperate to fit in and goes out of her way to make herself popular with the rest of the gang.

She and old friend Anthony (Damien Molony) have history and are just a little too flirty, but Kate (Louise Ford), his fiancee tries to play it cool with disastrous results. Other oddball regulars include womanising posh boy Sam (Jonathan Bailey), "I'm an estate agents so I'm allowed to be a twat"; shy, excitable Fred (Amit Shah); and duck-out of water Colin (Adrian Scarborough), a sullen, middle-aged recent divorcee to whom frustrated French artist Melody (Julie Dray) takes a shine. Tensions escalate as Lulu's eccentric Great Aunt Gladys (Kathy Burke) drops by with some unconventional assistance. Nothing is quite as it seems as the friends fall in and out of love and deal with the consequences. Each episode brims with brazenly filthy humour and alarming twists of fate.
