      James is getting on a bit and needs full-time help. So Phoebe and Robert, his middle-aged offspring, employ Mandy, who seems willing to take him off their hands. But as James regales his family with tales of Mandy's virtues, their shopping trips, and the shared pleasure of their journeys to garden centres, Phoebe and Robert sense something is amiss. Is this really their father, the distant figure who never once turned up for a sports day, now happily chortling over cuckoo clocks and television soaps? Then something happens that throws everything into new relief, and Phoebe and Robert discover that life most definitely does not stop for the elderly. It just moves onto a very different plane - changing all the stories they thought they knew so well.

      After the far-flung charms of "The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel," Deborah Moggach moves to the Welsh countryside in her hilarious new comedy. From the bestselling author of "The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel" comes another hilarious and romantic comedy, this time set in a run-down B&B in Wales. The irrepressible Russell 'Buffy' Buffery has upped sticks from London and moved to a decrepit B&B in Wales. He needs to fill the beds, and what better way than with 'Courses for Divorces', his new money-making wheeze. From cookery to car maintenance, the recently divorced find themselves re-learning (under Buffy's tutelage of course) all those skills they never thought they'd need again, and a whole lot more besides.
