BEMUSED – A BRITISH COMEDY ABOUT YOUTH AND AGE

Graham and Anne have two children, Polly and Tom. Polly moved out years ago, got married, had two kids, then split from her partner. Tom, the opposite of his sister, has never left home and spends his days playing computer games in his room or spending time with his on-off girlfriend, Amy. We also meet the next door neighbour, elderly Mr B, Anne’s sister Barbara and Max, Graham’s best friend. Although these people are from many different generations, they all have one thing in common – they want love and companionship; they’re just in different stages of their lives with finding it! A British comedy about youth and age and finding love!
