Press

Shifted from its usual Monday-night slot, the penultimate episode of Home Time brings the sadness that's been bubbling under the silliness right to the surface. It's Kelly's 30th birthday and the gang host a budget spa day in celebration (which means dropping a soluble aspirin in the bath). But a night out in Cov reminds them that life is moving forwards, whether they like it or not. And they really, really don't.

Rebecca Nicholson, The Guardian, 15th October 2009

Home Time: Bucket

Hello again. In Home Time episode five, The Girls finally hear the tick of the Growing Up Clock, as Kelly turns 30.
