Stuck In The Middle (of nowhere) *Selected for 2nd round UKTV sitcom comp
Stuck In The Middle (of nowhere) They're not old and their lives are not over.

A combination of unintentional eavesdropping over fences, to eccentric neighbour personalities and the idea for Stuck in The Middle emerged. It features Sam, hard working and recently widowed, she moves to the countryside into the Sow House, a converted farm building, where she thinks she'll settle into peaceful middle-age with her nearly adult children, but she has to think again when her privileged neighbour Fizz jumps through the hedge. Force of nature, chaotic Fizz thinks they need to live a little and Sam gets dragged along for the ride
