My Funny Valentine

Romance is in the air for social services colleagues - but the night ends in drama. Stars Sally Phillips. From February 2008.

Brian is amazed that Clare鈥檚 remembered Valentine's Day and booked a restaurant.

The only trouble is... she hasn't.

Sally Phillips is Clare Barker the social worker who has all the right jargon but never a practical solution.

A control freak, Clare likes nothing better than interfering in other people's lives on both a professional and personal basis. Clare is in her 30s, white, middle class and heterosexual, all of which are occasional causes of discomfort to her.

Clare continually struggles to control both her professional and private life.

In today's Big Society there are plenty of challenges out there for an involved, caring social worker. Or even Clare.

Written by Harry Venning and David Ramsden.
