The show is said to follow some of those “glamorous grannies and granddads over the course of six months, and found stories of joy and despair, ambition and new beginnings.”
In the first episode, we meet Ian O’Brien who at 33 became a first-time grandfather. Ten years later, Ian is now granddad to five grandchildren and is working to rebuild his relationship with his four daughters and their children.
“I never had the equipment to be a father, but I have the equipment to be a grandfather,” Ian says.
We’ll also meet Anna who became a granny at the age of 36.
Living with her 20-year-old daughter and her baby Malachi, Anna talks about how much she loves being a granny in her thirties.
However, while filming the show, Anna discovers a recurrence of cancer and we’ll watch as she and her family cope with the news.
