In a world where everyone is neurotic, but only in the cutest possible ways, Emma Mackey stars as Lt.

Hardworking and dedicated but lacking the people skills to smooth over her rougher edges, Ella is also dealing with the return of her estranged father (Woody Harrelson), the demands of her idiot of a husband (Jack Lowden), concerns over her sort of agoraphobic younger brother (Spike Fearn), and the tamest sex scandal ever seen in politics.
