Motherland - Season 1 (2017)

Julia wants to be at work for famous war photographer Malcolm Spender's book launch but has to help out at a kids' pool party, where she is annoyed to see her mother and Kevin feels upstaged by the charismatic James. He plots revenge but soon regrets it whilst Liz hopes for a hot date with a man whose wallet she has found.

Against Julia's wishes Paul sends his parents to help with child care but they are a very clumsy, penny-pinching couple in need of help themselves.

Meanwhile Liz jumps at the opportunity to bag another lover, an amorous flower seller.

Anne's new car propels her into the limelight as the mums try to get in on her new car pool. Kevin finds himself in the new role of confidant as Amanda shares a deep secret. And Liz and Julia's friendship is under fire as Liz realises she is just a 'mum' friend.

Julia's childcare problems are solved after she finds the perfect Nanny, but her friendship with Liz is strained. Amanda is keeping a low profile after Kevin blurted out her secret. Liz visits Lee's new partner to give her some advice. The school caretaker is in hospital but the Mums have lost their ringleader and there's nobody to organise a card.
