MARRIAGE - sun and mon bbc 1 9pm - TV PACE NO SPOILERS

[Blondeshavemorefun]

New drama starts sun and mon for 1&2

then 3&4 following week on Sunday and Monday

the lovely Nicola Walker and Sean Bean

The acclaimed British actors play Ian and Emma, who are a couple navigating the ups and downs of their 30-year partnership.

They are parents to Jessica (Chantelle Alle) and are dealing with their fears and insecurities as the drama explores the risks and gifts of a long-term relationship.

Marriage on BBC1 sees married couple Ian (Sean Bean) and Emma (Nicola Walker) negotiate the ups and downs of their 27-year marriage. They've dealt with all the insecurities, the ambiguities, the hopes and the fears that are part of all marriages. The drama explores the risks and the gifts of a long-term intimate relationship.

When we first meet married couple Ian and Emma they’re in a Spanish airport returning from a lovely holiday — and bickering over a baked potato! By the time they’re on the plane it’s a full blown argument, setting the scene for what’s to come in this four-part series.

looks good

@FlippinOmicron and @RosalindsAFuckingNightmare

your alert 😂

Looking forward to this - really like both actors. Will watch with DH and compare our 27 year marriage. 🫣

Thanks for the heads up, I love everything Nicola Walker is in.

Checking in, thanks @Blondeshavemorefun 😁

Would you bicker over a jacket @3catsandcounting

😄 I would probably bicker, but DH couldn't be bothered. Annoyingly laid back.

Just heard Nicola on BBC2 and watched the trailer, looks good!

Yes trailer looks good

usually love anything. She’s in

Big more info

Ian is struggling with the recent loss of his mum and just been made redundant

emma works for a firm of high flying solicitorS

but emma starts to have feelings for her younger colleague jamie

plus their daughter Jessica is in an unsuitable relationship with a man

I can't wait for this, I love the writer - he wrote Him & Her and Mum so I think I will love this. Shame there's only 4 episodes!

I have a girl crush on Nicola Walker. She’s an excellent actress and completely gorgeous.

HOWEVER - I might binge 😁.

No binging @DatingIsDifficult 😛😛

savour it

I’m excited about this. I hope it’s good.

I think this'll be good, love both the lead actors. Thanks for the thread @Blondeshavemorefun

Really looking forward to this as well

Sorry @DatingIsDifficult this isn’t my cup of tea so won’t be watching

sounds a bit like The Split which NW played a high flying lawyer who had long marriage with ups and downs and daughter in in advised relationship and has feelings for colleague...yawn...

I still need to watch the split

thats my sept nights as will have new baby so will be over my shoulder winding

I'm looking forward to watching - love Nicola and I loved Mum. Not watched the split, divorce dramas are a bit too close to home!

I shall watch this then rich house poor house as both 9pm

Can't wait for this. I love Nicola Walker and thought Sean Bean was great in that prison series. Mum is also one of my favourite series so I have high hopes for this one.

Me too @mum2jakie

i also have mum planned to watch in sept with split

Oh you will love Mum @Blondeshavemorefun It takes a couple of episodes to get into its stride but it's an amazing series! Worth getting a Britbox subscription for that alone.

He was a sick about the jacket

but marriage and love conquers fear of flying
