The show follows a pair who meet at a support group for divorced men, and is based on the hit podcast of a very similar name, penned by Dan Skinner and Harry Peacock. Appearing are Skinner alongside actor Simon Lipkin.

Lipkin recently joined the show with one week and two days' rehearsals – he has 43 monologues and over 700 lines of text to learn.
