"I do love some David Attenborough, but even he can be a bit of a miz bag now, always going on about climate change...You don't want to think about the end of the world before you go to bed on a Sunday night." Doreen and her two grown up daughters sit at the table - eating fish and chips, distracted by their phones. Upstairs, 17-year-old Megyn has locked herself in her grandmother's bedroom and refuses to come out. And no one is entirely sure why... Michael Wynne's dark comedy explores the safety of home and the different ways we cope in our increasingly uncertain world.
