Taken from the third successful BBC Radio 4 series starring Patricia Routledge and Prunella Scales, these episodes see a trembling in cyberspace as Vera and Irene discover the joys of e-mail. There are the usual domestic mishaps to fret about: Irene's daughter, Lesley, is refusing to marry the worthy but boring Brian; Vera's exhausted daughter, Karen, has abandoned her third baby at the hospital and eloped with a male nurse; and Vera's gay son, Howard, and his partner, Anthony, are trying for a baby with the help of a surrogate mother and a television crew. As Irene and Vera fall in and out of friendship, they accuse each other of everything from alcoholism to mental illness (in a loving, caring way, of course). Their hilarious put-downs and gossip give a wonderful insight into the trials of modern family life. 'An hilarious double act by Prunella Scales and Patricia Routledge' - Northern Echo 'Beautifully scripted and perfectly acted' - Daily Express
