Heartbreak Hotel

The couple book into a country hotel for a friend鈥檚 second wedding. Starring Roger Allam and Joanna Lumley. From January 2021.

Joanna Lumley and Roger Allam play a couple who have been married 'forever'.

Children of the 1960s, they're still free spirits, drawn together by their passion for music and each other. Their recognisable warm and witty conversations dance around everything from health scares, jealousy and confessions, to TV incompatibility and sourdough bread.

In this episode, Roger is best man at their friend鈥檚 second marriage, in a country hotel, and Joanna makes excessive demands of room service.

Written for Joanna Lumley and Roger Allam by award-winning comedy writer and journalist Jan Etherington.

Jan has been married for 34 years to Gavin Petrie, with whom she has created many hit Radio 4 Extra and TV series (Second Thoughts, plus Next of Kin, Faith in the Future, The Change),

Producer: Claire Jones

First broadcast on 麻豆社 Radio 4 in January 2021.
