Nick Warburton's comedy drama returns. It takes us to the Fens and the Platters' boatyard nestled on the river.

The Platter community is an eccentric one and at its heart is the chaotic pairing of Pat and his sister Libby. Libby, after a long absence, appears to be back to stay and so does Ravi, the newcomer, who Libby took under her wing. Can they all muddle along together in harmony? Possibly but there are hidden Platter secrets still waiting to be uncovered.

Libby ..... Monica Dolan

Directed by Tracey Neale

This second story, narrated by Pat, kicks off with a crisis: Martine, the boatyard Manager (who had a fear of water) has walked out. Her shock departure presents Pat with a problem. Either he runs the boatyard himself or employs someone else. Either idea makes him anxious.

Libby proposes a plan. Both her and Ravi will apply for the job. She’ll ensure Ravi gets it. Although Ravi has experience (he hasn’t) and bristles with good ideas (daydreams), is this ever going to work out for the best?

There are gorgeous trips along the river and over to Blake’s Island. Plans need to be made to thwart a troublesome visitor. But there are unresolved issues and hidden secrets between Pat and Libby that need to be uncovered.
