Comedy series about three young women living in Leeds who've graduated, had a year out, and are now struggling to find a job they're passionate about, a place to live that is half decent and a boyfriend they actually like. A sitcom about making terrible decisions, but having a brilliant time doing it. The show focuses on Meg, her eccentric cousin Bunny and their friend Laura as they discover that life might just be a bit tougher than they had imagined. From demeaning Promotions jobs complete with mad outfits to pursuing the men of their dreams - yet dating the men of their nightmares - the girls face '#FML-worthy' disasters in both their work and personal lives.
Meg and her cousin Bunny return home to Leeds, having cut short their gap year trip round India. They're greeted at the airport by their best friend Laura but - disaster - also by Meg's stalker-ish ex-boyfriend Mark. As far as Mark's concerned, they're still together. Unsurprisingly the homecoming doesn't run smoothly - and then there's also the small matter of finding a house and finding a job.
Bunny and Laura are amazed when Meg scores a hot date while out on the street promoting a smartphone. But it's not until the girls end up gatecrashing a party that things get really complicated.

Mark reinvents himself as a DJ and asks Meg to help out at his 90s Night. Meg agrees out of sympathy, but things don't go quite as expected.
Meg is traumatised when her parents announce a trial separation. But perhaps fit new neighbour Scott, who offers to practise his counselling skills on her, can ease the pain?
Meg organises a girls' night in, as they're all broke and single. The night spirals out of control when Laura and Bunny insist they play Truth or Dare.
Meg realises that everyone she knows is on the new dating app BangR. Anxious to prove to Mark that she's winning their break-up, she joins up and scores a date with a fit bloke.
Beautiful, free-spirited Leia arrives. Meg and Bunny know Leia from their trip to India, and everyone thinks she's amazing - except Meg.
Meg finds herself organising a hen do. Unfortunately, it clashes with a romantic date she can't get out of. While Meg struggles to run between both events, Bunny and Laura have troubles of their own.
Meg scores a job at trendy charity HumanKind UK. All she has to do is win over her cool boss Rebecca, and fit in with the general hip office vibe. No problem, right?
Mark wants to move out of the flat, which is great because Meg wants Bunny to move in. But who is going to get the big bedroom?
The girls' finances are at rock bottom and when there is not enough money for food, Meg comes up with an unusual solution. Bunny has an audition that requires mastery of a regional accent, while Laura goes for a job as a waitress at Uncle Sam's Saturday Shack.

The girls finally make a break for it but they have reckoned without one major setback.
