Middle-aged. Middle-class. Middle England. Gail Summerfield is happy, successful and certain she has all the answers. After a milestone birthday (54), she's trained as a life coach. It involves three things she loves: helping people, watching them grow and charging them £200. She's going to transform people's lives. Whether they want her to or not. Playful, provincial and unpredictable, Gail is a character comedy that gives a voice to the voiceless: vivacious middle-aged women from Milton Keynes. Written and performed by Emmeline Downie (Brainsluts, Channel 4's It Gets Worse). Directed by Leo Reich.
