Now she's 26 and works in the City, and they've drifted apart. So when she comes back for a Christmas visit and announces she wants to stay and help manage the pub, he's less than thrilled. Barmaid Mrs Drummond is unimpressed too - she's never liked Nicola - but regular customer Andy is delighted she's back home.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAdapting to being a co-landlord is difficult for Jack, who's run things single-handed since Nicola's mum died. He's a creature of habit, an old dog who won't be taught new tricks. Having his grown-up daughter around all the time is a challenge, especially when she breaks his favourite bowl and keeps insisting he talk about his feelings. But neither Jack nor Nicola wants to call time on their relationship - can they accept each other's foibles and find a way to reconnect?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCreated by veteran \u003ci\u003eCoronation Street\u003c\/i\u003e writer Joe Turner, this warm-hearted comedy drama stars \u003cb\u003eMichael Williams\u003c\/b\u003e (\u003ci\u003eA Fine Romance\u003c\/i\u003e) as Jack and \u003cb\u003eLisa Coleman\u003c\/b\u003e (\u003ci\u003eThe Story of Tracy Beaker\u003c\/i\u003e) as Nicola, with \u003cb\u003eSimon Greenall\u003c\/b\u003e (\u003ci\u003eI'm Alan Partridge\u003c\/i\u003e) as Andy and \u003cb\u003eCherry Morris\u003c\/b\u003e (\u003ci\u003eMapp and Lucia\u003c\/i\u003e) as Mrs Drummond.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eProduction credits\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWritten by Joe Turner\u003cbr\u003eProduced by Liz Anstee\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eCast\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJack - \u003cb\u003eMichael Williams\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNicola - \u003cb\u003eLisa Coleman\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMrs Drummond - \u003cb\u003eCherry Morris\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAndy - \u003cb\u003eSimon Greenall\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBrian\/Steve\/Derek\/Joe\/Various - \u003cb\u003eToby Longworth\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAndy's Mum\/The Inspector - \u003cb\u003eSally Grace\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eArthur - \u003cb\u003eFinetime Fontayne\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRalph - \u003cb\u003eJohn Duttine\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eKirstie - \u003cb\u003eDebra Stephenson\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFirst broadcast on BBC Radio 4, 7 January-11 February 1999\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e© 2024 BBC Studios Distribution Ltd.
