Did you love Stella Newman’s Pear Shaped and Leftovers? In A Pear Shaped Christmas, her characters return to delight fans and newcomers alike with a snortingly hilarious tale of how one high profile Christmas ad for a supermarket chain can go so horribly wrong in the course of a year. A treat if you can’t get enough of Jill Mansell, Jenny Colgan and Lucy Diamond.
‘I want a TV ad just like John Lewis’s – only better!’
That’s what Devron, the head of marketing at Fletchers supermarket wants – and what Devron wants, Devron gets – or else. It’ll be fine, though. Vicky has eleven months to make the nation’s new favourite Christmas ad, that’s more than enough time.
Unless something, or someone, gets in her way…
A tale of turkey and tears, mince pies and mayhem.
