The two men who have lived together in a small Covent Garden flat for nearly 50 years. Freddie was a budding actor and Stuart a barman when they first met but their careers are now pretty much over and their lives now consist of reading books, walking their dog and bickering. Joining Freddie and Stuart is feisty best friend Violet (played by Frances De La Tour). Their worlds are turned upside down with the arrival of a young man, Ash (Misfits star Iwan Rheon), as their new upstairs neighbour.
