Synopsis
One of a series of pilots aired by the Beeb in the autumn of 1999, only one of which - Friends Like These - became a fully-fledged series. This particular one was a kitschy show themed around lurrve. Games included three navy wives competing for the chance to visit their husbands in Barbados and a hoopla game to decide whether a man should go on a romantic holiday with his girlfriend or a trip to Amsterdam with his mates. From the description alone it may seem obvious why a series was never commissioned, though actually a more immediate reason the show never returned was that O'Grady signed an exclusive deal with ITV just days before the pilot aired.
Trivia
