Synopsis: Sam (Hugh Laurie) and Lucy (Joey Richardson) seem like the perfect couple - young, sexy, successful, happily married, and very much in love.

Sam (Hugh Laurie) and Lucy (Joey Richardson) seem like the perfect couple - young, sexy, successful, happily married, and very much in love. They decide the time has come to add a baby to the family. Fine. And so they happily commence a carefully planned and energetic schedule of bonking and shagging. Yet nothing happens. They try everything - new age ritual, aroma-therapeutic massages, sex on lay lines under the full moon, Chinese acupuncture and erotic aphrodisiacs. They try In Vitro Fertilisation (IVF) and have their respective sexual equipment thoroughly inspected by the finest Eastern and Western specialists. There appears to be absolutely no medical reason why they do not conceive, and yet the blessed event seems ever elusive. At the same time, Sam, who is television executive and writer, comes down with a serious case of writers block, whilst Lucy is getting increasingly frustrated and impatient. One day Sam has an idea, an exciting and thrilling idea - an idea which holds the prospect of his becoming the artist he has always dreamed of becoming. He will write a romantic comedy about a loving and yet infertile couple. When Sam enthusiastically shares his idea with Lucy, she is horrified. Yes, all right, she does want to support Sam's creative impulses, but she can't allow him to parade their private medical predicament in public. She absolutely forbids Sam from pursuing the idea, but he can't help himself. For the first time in years, the ideas are tumbling out of him. So begins a journey of love and betrayal, which will test their marriage and their love, in hilarious and unexpected ways. Sam will be sucked into the glamorous and superficial world of movie making. Lucy finds her loyalties and emotions tested as she gravitates towards the arms of another man. What Sam and Lucy go through is absolutely inconceivable. Will their marriage hold and love conquer all? And if their love survives will there be three of them to share it? ...Maybe Baby. -- © 2000 Siren Entertainment [More]
