Life of Riley

Maddy decides that she needs to spend more quality time with her husband, but in doing so almost kills him (and her marriage)...

When building work puts Maddy and Jim’s bedroom off limits, everyone has to shuffle round to make room and the lack of personal space leads to some uncomfortable discoveries.

Maddy decides the time has come to get back into paid employment, but juggling her office job and her domestic responsibilities turns out to be harder work than she had expected.

When Maddy’s ex-husband Robbie gets a young, trendy new girlfriend, Maddy cannot help setting herself up in competition - but her attempts to make herself more youthful do not go according to plan.

Maddy tries to get Ted into the best school in the area, but discovers that passing the entrance exam is actually the easiest requirement, and that there are plenty more challenges to overcome if she’s to get him the highest education.

Maddy plays therapist to Danny when she discovers he has been seeing the school counsellor, but her efforts prove to cause more problems than they solve.
