When Maggie sets fire to the kitchen, her recently-single son Arthur moves back into the family home where his eccentric Mum rules the roost.
Following a break-up from his long-term girlfriend Dee, Arthur puts his future on hold to move back with his widowed mother, Maggie. Arthur and older sister Robbie - arguably ’the favourite’ - attempt to care for Maggie who, although she almost burnt down the kitchen, still runs rings around her children.
