A Delicious Recipe for Domestic Disaster:

Take one small town where everyone thinks they know everyone else’s business. Add three households:
MP Mike Andrews, his wife Gill and two young children;
Church of Scotland minister Tom Graham, his wife Ali, two teenage daughters and an afterthought;
Sixty-something local businessman Jack Caldwell, and his childless wife Phyllis.
Mix in several large dollops of scandal, some secrets and a tragedy.
Turn up the heat and bring to the boil.
Season with one eccentric old lady – Minty Oliver – and serve with the tabloid press and a big helping of local gossip.
