Season 2

22 Mar, 2021

Time has moved on in Season 2. Luke is now 13 years old and Ava is 10, serving up brand new parenting challenges for Paul and Ally. Luke’s increasing anxiety and Ava’s growing independence add some new and uncharted complications into the existing chaotic mix of stretched resources, lack of time and the fine art of winging it while looking like you know what you’re doing.

Season 3

09 May, 2022

Season 3 starts days after Season 2 ended. Paul has moved out and is staying at Leah’s house. He should be lonely, but the simpler life has its appeal. Eventually, though, amends with Luke must be made. Meanwhile, Ally has her own problems – with work, her early menopause and her increasingly strained relationship with her newly adolescent daughter, Ava. Gallows humor and large glasses of wine only go so far in quelling the angst…

Season 4

31 Jul, 2023

Five years since we last saw the Worsley family, season four brings the biggest parenting challenge that Paul and Ally have ever faced, as 18-year-old Luke drops a bombshell at Christmas dinner that will change everyone’s lives forever. No longer in Luke’s shadow, 16-year-old Ava experiences her own bombshell moment as she meets and immediately falls for the charismatic “Holly.” Paul and Ally continue to try, fail and try again as they face these latest parenting challenges, while also having to support the increasingly troubled Jim and Jackie.
