Clutter

4 Extra Debut. Sisters Maureen and Lesley are packing up the family home, but can’t agree about selling it. Stars Alison Steadman. From 2019.

Not long after her death, two sisters - Maureen and Lesley - are sorting out their mother's clothes to take to the charity shop.

It's a painful duty, with Maureen trying to control the worst of Lesley’s projectile lamenting.

A man comes to the door and introduces himself as David Johnson, a friend of Maureen’s neighbour. He would like to look round the house if they’re thinking of selling, which Maureen definitely is.

But Lesley is against the idea and, behind Maureen's back, offers David their mother’s old bedroom as a pied-a-terre.

Maureen is annoyed by Lesley’s initiative, but David is oblivious to the tension he has caused.

Written in four parts by Sue Limb
