Main cast

Main characters

Dave

Intelligent and socially awkward, Dave always argues with flatmate James.

James

James is like a big baby – friendly, but unpredictable when provoked. He owes money to Dave.

Alex

Alex, attractive and cocky, lacks a defined sense of self.

Lucy

Lucy considers herself independent but requires external validation.

Maya

Although Maya considers herself a free-spirited hippy, she appears uptight to others.

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 of Dave and James, fall out over plans for Saturday night – ice skating or dinner party. A new girl named Maya moves into Lucy and Alex's flat, but soon questions what she has walked into. The light in the bathroom never works, and assertive control freak Lucy keeps causing trouble.
