“Two in One Day” tells the story of Emma Morley and Dexter Mayhew, who exchange words for the very first time on July 15, 1988, on the evening of their university graduation.
The next morning they go their separate ways, but where will they be on this ordinary day next year, and the year after that, and every year after that?
In each episode we meet Dex (Leo Woodall) and Em (Ambika Mod), always a year older, on this one day.
They develop and change, come closer and move away from each other, they experience joy and suffering.
Two in One Day, based on the global bestseller by David Nicholls, is a love story that spans decades.
