Settling

When you’re practically married…

Two disillusioned thirty-somethings decide to follow through on their teenage marriage pact, exploring what happens when you stop waiting for “the one” and settle for your best friend.

South Pacific Pictures for Three

Season 1: 6 x 30'

Harry finds herself at rock bottom in her thirties when she realises that her current lover Danny – who also happens to be her boss – has got his wife ‘accidentally’ pregnant. To make matters worse, she’s still living with her Mum and has no hope of buying a place on a single salary.

The last person who she expects to change her life is her old high school best friend Sal. He’s a single dad working an uninspiring corporate job and has given up on finding love. Their plan is simple: honour their teenage marriage pact and build the kind of life that their coupled-up friends seem to have – but remain still able to date. Because they’re definitely only together for practical reasons…
