While four 49 year olds are planning a party their seaside town will never forget, they also have more on their minds than canapés and balloons for their half-century…
Empty-nester Charlotte is worried what her husband might be up to.
Single mother Roz fears that her teenage daughter will discover how she pays the bills.
Businesswoman Fay brags about her no-strings toy boy but hides the truth behind her divorce. 
Singleton Sherie’s cat is the only male in her life who ever stays around. Or is he?
 
They’re all keeping secrets but as the big birthday looms, the beans are about to be spilt, and one of them is going to need her friends more than ever…
