Snap: Clean break or clean slate?

Synopsis

All three series of the BBC sitcom about a couple who've split up, but can't quite call it quitsWhen two people have history, how can they ever be history? That's the question facing Molly and Doug, who are separating after 16 years of marriage. He's moving out (albeit a mere three streets away), and she's moving on (just as soon as she can get her wedding ring off) - only somehow, they can't seem to stay away from one another.Breaking up would be so much easier if it wasn't for the woes of their two teenage children, Doug's elderly mum's interference, and the sneaking suspicion that perhaps they shouldn't be divorcing at all.... Will the couple get closure and accept that their relationship is over, or can they find a way to rebuild their lives together?Written by acclaimed scriptwriter Paul Mendelson (May to December, My Hero), this sparkling romantic comedy stars Rebecca Lacey as Molly and Paul Venables as Doug, with a full cast including Rebecca Front, Samantha Spiro and Robin Weaver.Production creditsWritten by Paul MendelsonProduced by David Ian NevilleFirst broadcast BBC Radio 4, 23 July-13 August 2003 (Series 1), 14 July-18 August 2004 (Series 2), 27 July-31 August 2005 (Series 3)CastMolly - Rebecca LaceyDoug/Shopkeeper - Paul VenablesKaz/Michelle/Emma - Soumaya KeynesRyan - Jessie SullivanDawn - Rebecca Front/Samantha Spiro/Robin WeaverScarlet/Mrs Johnston - Rebecca FrontMrs Lonsdale/Annie/Mrs Dawlish/Lydia/Mrs Niarchos/Waitress/Mrs Luigi/Old lady - Marlene SidawayAnsel/Steve/Stallholder/Surgeon - Richard FirthRaymond/Mr Silverton/TV announcer/Ernie/Alistair - Jonathan TaflerGwynneth - Jennifer HillSusan - Samantha SpiroEirwen/Waitress - Robin Weaver'Bittersweet and very funny' The Times© 2022 BBC Studios Distribution Ltd.
