John Hannah and Sue Johnson are among the star studded cast of an unusual new six-part comedy, set in Alcoholics Anonymous, based on author Pete Jackson's personal experience. At AA meetings he found, as many do, real support from the pooled experiences of very different people, all there for one reason yet all with their own personal emotional baggage. We follow the lives of five recovering alcoholics as they get to know each other , hate each other, fight, laugh, learn as they each tell their stories. We star with Fiona (played by Rebecca Front), a competitive ex-banker, a bit of a snob. Can she come to terms with AA's essential egalitarianism?

Gillian Reynolds, The Telegraph, 3rd January 2015
