Stephanie Canworth has it all; a successful career, supportive husband and she's a media darling. But it takes just one Facebook poke from a former love and the memories come flooding back. Is this really the life she wants? Songs from the 80s and 90s accompany Stephanie's journey down memory lane in this intimate, funny and warm story about life and love, with Denise Van Outen performing cover versions of torch songs by Soft Cell, Culture Club, etc, as well as the title song which has been specially written for the show by Steve Anderson and Terry Ronald.

She was runner-up in the 2013 Strictly Come Dancing. She currently presents her own Saturday lunchtime show on Magic 105.4.
