LAST TANGO IN LITTLE GRIMLEY
Membership of the local amateur drama society has dwindled to four. Time for dramatic action. There's only one thing that sells tickets these days - sex. But how will the locals react to the promise of a sizzling sex comedy? All is revealed in this fast-paced comedy of an Am-Dram in trouble.
JOINING THE CLUB
Vicky is pregnant. Her husband Mark has been passed over for promotion and he's convinced it's because he's not a member of the "baby club".

When he hears Vicky's news Mark phones his boss to get his job back but Vicky, hearing him grovel, snatches the phone from him and reiterates Mark's original insult. They now face impending parenthood happily together.
WOMEN ONLY
After a stressful year for both of them, divorcee Laura decides to take her recently widowed mother Ruth on a much-needed holiday. A few gin and tonics later, Laura's whole world is turned upside down. But as the extraordinary revelations start to fly, will there be an unexpected twist?
LITTLE GRIMLEY - SAVING THE PLANET
When Little Grimley ADS is challenged by the local council to reduce its carbon footprint, Chairman Gordon comes up with another cunning plan to raise funds for some new low-energy theatre equipment. But as usual, things never quite go to plan.
