The series focuses on supermarket assistant manager John Redmond (Kay) and promotions rep Kayleigh Kitson (Gibson), who are taking part in their firm's car sharing scheme.
The first half of each episode shows John picking up Kayleigh from her home in his Fiat 500L and the two having conversations about each other's lives as they arrive at work. The second half of the episode sees the two leaving work to return home and talk about what they did at work.
As they travel to and from work, John and Kayleigh listen on the car's radio to Forever FM. In each episode one or both of them (mostly Kayleigh) have a daydream featuring them singing to a song played on the radio.
