LOVE AGAIN
1 x 75 minutes

LOVE AGAIN is the story of PHILIP LARKIN and the four women who shaped his life and poetry.

Even as he recoiled from these women and what they might represent – marriage, kids, “the enemy of art” – he cared for them all, and many of his most memorable poems emerged from these tangled relationships. Though his poetic style may have been finely honed and well ordered, his private life was anything but.

Critically lauded and shown twice on BBC2 in 2003, this one-off film starred Hugh Bonneville, Tara Fitzgerald and Eileen Atkins.

They're too old and too slow, too under the thumb at home to waste time kicking a ball around on Tuesday nights and losing every time.

So the football stops and the excitement starts. They begin in lap-dancing bars, but soon want more. Porn. Violence. Sex. Class A's. Tuesday nights will never be the same again.

ATTACHMENTS

Attachments was not just a T.V. show nor was the Attachments Website an appendage to the T.V. show. It was a T.V. show and an Internet business interacting to create a completely new experience.

The actual Internet business added resonance and public interest to the fictional characters in the T.V. show; and the concept that these characters were creating the Internet business in real time gave it a cachet and an extra dimension.


The Show

A one hour comedy drama series about a group of people coming up to the big three 0.

The series was aimed at the audience both sides of the crucial birthday. When is youth over? Is it thirty? Or can we choose? It’s the time in life when career and relationship questions start to get serious: the stakes are higher. In your twenties you can get away with being promising. In your thirties you have to deliver. These people wonder if they can, and what compromises will be required. And sacrifices. This was a show about all the different takes on growing up. Or refusing to.

Much of the fun was in the contrast between the fact that our characters gave advice about sex, relationships and friendships – but were not too hot at these things themselves.
