Main characters
Dave
Dave is intelligent and socially awkward - yeah, one of them. He is always arguing with flatmate James.
James
James is like a big baby. Friendly, but he'll turn if he's backed into a corner. That's babies, right? He owes money to flatmate Dave - which is never a good thing.
Alex
Alex is attractive and cocky, but not in a cocky way. More like someone who enjoys looking in the mirror but isn't exactly sure who they're looking at...
Lucy
Lucy would bluff her way through anything if she wasn't so bad at bluffing her way through everything. She thinks she's independent but needs everyone to tell her so...
Maya
Maya considers herself a free spirit. But we all know people who do that are usually so uptight they have their kaftan shawls arranged precisely according to the order of the colours in the rainbow.[2]
Synopsis
Dave and James, who live on one side of the street, decide to make a spreadsheet detailing everything they owe each other. Meanwhile, Lucy and Alex, who live opposite, fall out over what to do on Saturday night - a dinner party or going ice skating are the two choices. A new girl called Maya moves into Lucy and Alex's flat. She is soon questioning what she has walked into - the light in the bathroom never works, and Lucy keeps managing to inconvenience her life by being an assertive control freak.[3]
