One Day
Synopsis
She is a working-class girl of principle and ambition who dreams of making the world a better place. He is a wealthy charmer who dreams that the world will be his playground. For the next two decades, every July 15th reveals to us how 'Em' and 'Dex' are faring, as their friendship ebbs and flows with the passing of the years.
Through laughter and romance, heartbreak and exhilaration, they experience the grandeur of life. Somewhere along their journey, these two people realize that what they are searching and hoping for has been there for them all along.

Set in London in 1961, a city caught between the drab, post-war 50’s, and the glamorous, more liberated 60’s. Jenny stands on the brink of becoming a woman; a brilliantly witty, clever and attractive 17 year-old girl whose suburban life of dull family meals, giggling schoolgirls and homework is about to be blown apart by David - older, urbane and unsuitable. <br /> <br /> He introduces Jenny to an exciting new world of chic dinners, art auctions, smoky clubs and foreign trips. He charms her parents. But just as their long-held dream of Jenny getting into Oxford University seems within reach, another kind of life now tempts her. Is it one that sets her free or traps her? Will David be the making or the undoing of Jenny?
