The Story So Far

26 mins

Woodley (Frank Woodley) is the chaotic and accident prone, yet devoted father of seven-year-old Ollie (Alexandra Cashmere). Recently divorced, his ex-wife Em (Justine Clarke) couldn't live amongst the chaos but Woodley secretly hopes that one day he'll win her back and they'll be a family again. But with Em's new boyfriend Greg (Tom Long) on the scene, it's not going to be easy. For Em, Greg is reliable and focused, everything that Woodley wasn't while they were married, and it doesn't take long for Greg to slip easily into the fabric of their lives. Woodley struggles to come to terms with Em's new relationship and endeavours to prove to Em that he's still worthy of her love. Ollie loves her dad to bits and Woodley's determined to never let her down or for her to lose the special spot in her heart she holds just for him. But as Greg's affection for Em grows, and Em in turn sees a possible future with Greg, will Woodley be able to win Em back before it's too late? In the first episode, we learn why Woodley's marriage went all wrong and see Woodley at work at his latest job, handing out flyers for an egg factory - dressed as an egg. On the day of Ollie's school concert, Woodley finds himself stuck in the egg suit. Not wanting to let Ollie down, Woodley's determined to make it - egg suit and all.
