Counting Stars
Woolwich. Club Paradise. Valentine’s Night. Nigerian nightclub toilet attendants Abiodun and Sophie brace themselves for the busiest night of the year: loved up couples; rowdy singletons; and everything in between. The clubbers aren’t the only ones celebrating though. Tonight Abiodun and Sophie are marking their one year anniversary together having met in Paradise: united in love, divided by a toilet wall. But as the countdown to midnight and the end of their shift begins, bosses, exes and clubbers threaten to stall the anniversary plans of the young lovers. Will Abiodun and Sophie be forever destined to facilitate the love lives of others or will they insist on making it back in time for their very own Valentine’s celebration?
State Red
‘You have to realise your decisions have consequences not only for you but for all of us – most of all your father!’ It’s late.

To their astonishment, and relief, they find their estranged son, Luke, fast asleep upstairs. After a year’s absence – and with only one email letting them know he was safe – where has he been? More importantly, why has he come back? And will Luke’s demons play hell with Richard’s promotion?
