A recently divorced woman is celebrating her 60th birthday in the London alone (Julia Ormond from TWD: The World Beyond). Her children have forgotten or not thought it important to join her, so while wandering museums she meets someone. He is impressed by her intelligence and humor. They go for drinks and it continues from there. The catch is....he is much younger (Ben Barnes from Westworld). In the 6 episodes we get a glimpse at each of the main characters. We learn secrets about each one, and we are led to believe the young man is only in it for the money. Which was obviously a ploy - I didn't fall for it. SPOILER
Turns out the woman and her adult kids are the ones with the secret. The ex-husband had been abusing her their entire marriage and it had scarred all the kids.
Again, we see it could have been done in an hour and a half movie, but they had to draw it out with a bunch of nonsense that didn't further the plot at all. All in all, I say: SKIP IT on Acorn
