What to expect
Lucy's infamous dinner parties were always the talk of the town, but after her husband's death, they've become few and far between. When she gets engaged to her new fiancé, Mike, she decides what better way to introduce him to her friends than by reinstating their supper club.
But a lot has changed in the last six years.
Lucy's best friend, Maggie, must face sitting at the dinner table with her husband's new model girlfriend in tow.
Now a mother, so much of Chrissie's life revolves around changing nappies and mindless baby TV that she worries if she'll still be good company.
The only single one of the group, Jenny is not interested in finding a man and wishes her older sister would stop trying to set her up with the handsome new neighbour.
Perhaps Lucy has bitten off more than she can chew with these dinner parties, but what's a little wine among old friends anyway?
