William & Mary

No one said the road to romance wasn?t bumpy. Just ask William Shawcross (Martin Clunes, Shakespeare In Love; Men Behaving Badly; Goodbye, Mr. Chips) who finds few women are excited at the prospect of dating an undertaker. When he sees Mary (Julie Graham, Dirty Tricks, Agatha Christie?s Marple: Towards Zero, At Home with the Braithwaites) on a dating service video, William is captivated?hoping against hope she?s not too busy bringing people into the world as a midwife to date someone whose job it is to see them out. Each heartwarming episode sees Mary bring new life into the world while William gently takes it away. These are character-driven stories with clever plots and familiar themes, from a deadbeat ex and an interfering mother to rude stepchildren. You?ll laugh, cry and cringe with knowing embarrassment through six episodes of this brilliant, quirky and often moving British TV series about two people tripping down the imperfect path of true love.
