Plot

The passengers display a range of behaviours, with each trip telling a part of their stories and evoking a range of reactions by Ben. Ben's background story unfolds as the series progresses, as he tries to prepare for impending unplanned fatherhood with the mother of his child, whom he hardly knows.[4]

Sam Cotton was recruited to play the lead character and Zahra Newman the mother of his unborn child.[5]
