Episode 6
Whilst attempting to write his wedding speech, the groom thinks back to when he first met Celine.
A sparky comedic exploration of modern love and millennial malaise from the Irish author Naoise Dolan. As read by Archie Steele.
Celine (a pianist) and her boyfriend Luke (a serial cheater) are to be married. However, on the night of their engagement party, Luke disappears with Celine’s ex-girlfriend…
Phoebe (the bridesmaid and Celine’s sister) just wants to get to the bottom of Luke’s frequent unexplained disappearances.
Archie (the best man) should be moving on from his love for Luke and up the corporate ladder, but he finds himself utterly stuck.
And Vivian (a wedding guest) is the only one with enough emotional distance to offer something resembling good advice.
As the wedding approaches and these five lives intersect, past lovers, old friends and new enemies will search for their happily ever after — but does it lie at the end of an aisle?
