Alan

Seven years into his marriage with Celia, Alan is feeling a desire to get out into the world.

Played by

Celia is baffled by his decision to apply for a job in a local supermarket, but for Alan, keeping busy is important. The opportunity to brighten someone’s day by being cheerful at a checkout appeals to Alan’s friendly personality, and he knows that seeing new faces – as well as old friends like Harry - is part of what keeps him young.

But Alan’s natural generosity and openness to adventure can lead him into unexpected situations.
