What to expect
As the Yorkshire village of Westenbury mourns the loss of one of their own, the women can't help but contemplate who will fill the vacancy in handsome widower David's life.
Meanwhile, Grace Stevens has decided to move on without her good-for-nothing husband. Right now, she needs to focus less on men and more on wrangling with her unruly class of pre-teens.
And thankfully, there's plenty to keep her occupied. Between an accidental dalliance with a pupil's dad, helping close down a drug ring and keeping up with her closest girlfriends, Grace is busier than ever.
But as she spends more time with David, her determination to go it alone begins to waver...
