This new comedy, written by and starring Frog Stone, follows Mim (Miriam Margolyes) and her daughter Fran (Frog) as they embark on a road trip, one of Mim’s 'bucket list' items as she turns 70.

We'll just say upfront it's not for the easily offended (and sometimes not for those who find it quite difficult) but it's really rather smuttily charming in a bittersweet way as mother and daughter clash constantly, even on the idea of a road trip.

Free spirit Mim thinks they’ll be 'like Thelma and Louise', while Fran imagines her mum has a 'horrific odyssey of sordid antics' in mind. 'Carpe bloody diem!' yells Mim and, really, that's what it's all about.
