A BBC comedy sitcom from BBC New Comedy Award winner Lucy Beaumont, also starring Maureen Lipman.

Sophie still lives at home with her mum in Hull. They make a living doing car boot sales at the weekend.

She dreams of moving to London to meet her dad and to become a famous actress. Will this dream ever come true?

Starring Lucy Beaumont as Sophie and Maureen Lipman as her mum, Sheila.

Lucy Beaumont is lovely

And Maureen Lipman plays a great role as her mother. A lot of the story is Lucy's character, Sophie, wanting to get away from her

Most enjoyable

I came across this series by complete accident and I'm very pleased I did. The cast delivered the comedy moments with great timing, which made me laugh out loud. Well done Lucy Beaumont. Hopefully more to come in the future

Great set of voices.

First encounter with the wonderful Lucy Beaumont. Now enjoying everything she puts out.
Each story in this set is complete.
Amazing actors when they are telling the story with just their voices.

Brilliant

Great writing, very well performed. Lucy and Maureen are fantastic as are the rest of the cast. Lucy is a very clever and very funny writer. I enjoyed this so much. Will listen to it again shortly. Laugh out loud comedy.

To Hull and back

A gentle well written and acted series throughout.

Each and every character has a laugh in them, gelling together all through the three episodes.
There’s a singing gorilla, with a banana of course. Elvis witnesses a miracle.
In my opinion, superb, I commented this to the house.
