Charlotte & Lillian Series 3

Charlotte (Helen Monks) and Lillian (Miriam Margolyes) are back, continuing a Befriend the Elderly scheme despite not liking each other much. Both are convinced they’re doing the other a favour - Charlotte by providing company for a lonely old lady, Lillian by filling gaps on the CV of a self-absorbed millennial.

Neither have seen much of anyone during lockdown. Lillian is as determined as ever to remain independent with Puzzles Weekly, the companionship of daytime TV and the occasional phone call. Charlotte, meanwhile, has been gaining ground as a social media influencer, sharing updates of her good deeds and bringing joy to just about everyone’s life. Apart from Lillian’s, of course.
