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

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.

It’s on iPlayer @mum2jakie

Nothing much is suppose to happen like him and her and Mum, only this isn't a sitcom.
Their clothes are very dull even on purpose which I don't think is necessary.

VioletCharlotte · 14/08/2022 21:18

I've been really looking forward to this but not impressed so far. I loved the Split so I guess I was hoping for a similar feel. They don't seem like a very likely couple.

Aquarius1234 · 14/08/2022 21:18

But of course I'm watching for the cast.

Blondeshavemorefun · 14/08/2022 21:21

Dh has stropped to other tv

This is crap.

is it saying if married for years you become boring

OhAmBackAgain · 14/08/2022 21:22

God its depressing its like its written by someone who only imagines what life is like after 27 years of marriage. I've been married 24 and christ I'd slit my wrist if we lived and talked like that every day 🙄

toffeechai · 14/08/2022 21:22

Oh no! I was just thinking I liked the look of this as I love both the leads so much

Aquarius1234 · 14/08/2022 21:24

Yes the writer said its supposed to be about thr humdrum of married life. The tedious bits.

Blondeshavemorefun · 14/08/2022 21:24

NW is usually fab

wonder if she regrets making this

OP posts:
Blondeshavemorefun · 14/08/2022 21:25

OP posts:
Aquarius1234 · 14/08/2022 21:25

And not being able to discuss the deep feeling stuff?

Aquarius1234 · 14/08/2022 21:26

She said it was a unique project. Just read that before it started.

Blondeshavemorefun · 14/08/2022 21:26

It’s like They have nothing to say to each other

and ignores her sobbing

OP posts:
Davros · 14/08/2022 21:26

Don't like it. He's too old for her. It's grim and turgid

Blondeshavemorefun · 14/08/2022 21:27

And she ignores him sobbing

I've swapped to Channel 5, it's a good episode.

realhousewifeoffitzrovia · 14/08/2022 21:27

I’m sticking with it for a bit. I think it’s of the « gritty dull » genre lol.
they are flagging that the husband has tendencies towards OCD

OhAmBackAgain · 14/08/2022 21:28

it's like 2 people not having a clue how to interact with each other Confused
