Episode synopsis
Sara is about to turn 40, and life is not as she imagined it would be. Whether it's making urgent funeral arrangements for a dead cat, lying about her personal life to placate her anxious mother, or getting into trouble with a netball referee, Sara's life is reaching tipping point and something's got to give. Much to Sara's dismay, it seems her friends are arranging a 'surprise' birthday party, but what she doesn't know is that they're about to set her a dramatic ultimatum.
About Heading Out
Sara is a woman approaching middle age who is popular and successful - she's a veterinarian so skilled that she can spay a tortoise using just one hand - but has a chink in her armour: she's afraid to tell her parents that she is a lesbian. So on the eve of her 40th birthday, friends Jamie and Justine give Sara an ultimatum - either tell her parents next time mum and dad visit or they will.
