Love and Other Disasters

Synopsis

Jacks is an assistant editor at UK Vogue and forms the centre of her group of friends, taking an 'Emma'-like role as she match-makes and steers them through their disastrous relationships. Her gay flatmate Peter is a particular focus of her repeated attempts to help him find true love. But when will Jacks realise she needs to focus on her own less than ideal love life? And when will Peter stop letting his imagination of the ideal lover get in the way of real-life happiness?

Love and Other Disasters provides us with a witty glance into a glittering group of friends and their London life, whilst examining the difference between life and love as it is in the movies and how it is in real life.
