Synopsis

Last Tango in Halifax


Alan Buttershaw and Celia Dawson are both widowed and in their 70s. When their grandsons put them on Facebook, they rediscover feelings for one another that are just as intense and beautiful now as they werewhen they were teenagers. Although Alan’s daughter Gillian and Celia’s daughter Caroline are like chalk and cheese, neither would dream of getting in the way of their parents’ happiness. But somehow life – and love – are never quite that easy.
