Dawn French and Jennifer Saunders star as respected novelist Florence and movie star Selina, in a sparkling comedy series about two sisters at war, by Veep writer David Quantick.
Florence has mixed feelings when Selina tells her she鈥檚 moving out as she鈥檚 sold the movie rights to her book and is rich again. But disaster strikes as Selina trashes a national treasure on a live TV appearance. And daughter Lucy cancels her round-the-world yacht voyage to confront the sisters with a devastating question鈥
鈥淭he leads鈥 natural chemistry, plus David Quantick鈥檚 witty script鈥 make for an enjoyable comedy with series potential鈥 The Observer
