Douglas Bellowes (Hugh Bonneville) is a presenter on a successful evening news programme called Live At Six. Despite a familiar kind of entitled stuffiness, he and his sparky young co-host Madeline Crow have a chemistry that makes for TV gold.
All is fine in the world of Douglas – at least as far as he’s concerned – until it isn’t. A tweet emerges that suggests he was overheard making a sexist joke at a recent wedding, and a damn good cancelling is seemingly about to unfold. Especially when Madeline chooses to retweet it to her 2 million followers.
