Bill's Included

Bill's Included follows middle-aged divorcee Bill Beam, who staves off financial ruin by renting his spare rooms to students. Warm-hearted and eager but neurotic and slightly overbearing, Bill is thrilled by the youthful energy his lodgers bring - but baffled by their indifference to his laminated house rules and colour-coded cutlery. He's torn between wanting to be part of the gang-sharing banter, keeping up with trends, and clinging to his role as responsible adult.

The students, meanwhile, aren't exactly living the dream: a 90-minute commute to campus, a strict bin rota, and a man in his 50s who insists on a group vote before ordering a takeaway. Still, the rent's insanely cheap (please don't tell Bill), and somehow, through all the awkwardness, this chaotic household starts to gel.

As Bill and his mismatched lodgers navigate heartbreak, reinvention, and emotional upheaval, surprising parallels emerge between university life and midlife crisis. Can they overcome their differences, embrace their found family, and help each other muddle along? Can Bill learn to be both landlord and land ... friend? Probably not, because he'll get too excited and screw everything up, but let's see.
