Emma has a job in television which is distinctly less glamorous than it sounds. She's managed to claw her way up the ranks from Tea-Maker and Rubbish-Collector to 2nd Assistant Director (heavy on the 'assistant'. Even heavier on the '2nd'). So when she finds she's accidentally pregnant and at the same time accidentally sacked (well, less accidentally: she did tell her boss to stick his job up his bum), she knows things are going to have to change. Luckily she's also accidentally the heir to a lovely cottage in Wimbledon, with a crazy Doberman-owning octogenarian as a neighbour and a rather sexy guy as an accidental tenant.
