Maggie and Her
Divorced 35-year-old schoolteacher Maggie Brooks lives in a block of flats in London.

Though they are not related, the duo have a classic mother/daughter relationship with Mrs P. regularly knocking on Maggie's front door to voice her opinions on a variety of things (including the men in Maggie's life).
