Having volunteered to arrange their dad’s surprise 60th party, quarrelling siblings Liz and Scott find it a struggle, especially when their mum weighs in on a group call

After volunteering to organise a surprise birthday party for their Dad’s 60th, siblings Liz and Scott squabble over who has responsibility for making the arrangements. Mum’s idea of helping just makes Liz feel less than fit for purpose. Liz is desperate to impress and knock Scott from his ‘golden child’ pedestal by whatever means necessary. Will they manage to put aside their differences and get the shindig sorted? Will petty childhood grievances ruin the celebrations? And does their dad even want a surprise party?

Starring Sally Reid as Liz, Jordan Young as Scott, Barbara Rafferty as Mary and Gavin Mitchell as Peter.
