Description

The Domestic Goddess - a story of social media fame, a family in crisis and advice on buying a bike. Adam and Sarah live in a house that's too small for them with a mortgage that's too big for them and, once they've wrestled the kids into bed, they watch Netflix series in their pyjamas or have cheap-as-chips, Chardonnay-soaked dinners with their friends. After Sarah wins a writing competition for a women's magazine, she's asked to become a regular columnist. Emma, Adam's friend, but certainly not Sarah's, a glamorous celebrity publicity, immediately sees potential in Sarah as a YouTube star. And so the Domestic Goddess is born. As the Domestic Goddess attracts followers and cables, lights and free samples for promotion begin to fill the house, Adam and the children find themselves transformed into social media stars. But Adam is uncomfortable with their new found fame. Luckily, Emma has a suggestion - Adam should follow in his wife's footsteps and the humble bike shop that he runs with his quirky assistant Fin becomes the home of the Bicycle Boys, the next YouTube sensation. But is more celebrity and more freebies really the answer to Adam and Sarah's growing estrangement? Before long, as the couple find themselves competing for subscribers, swamped by fans and struggling to handle their new fame, the fault lines in their relationship force them apart. Adam has never had to try at anything - other than escaping from the shadow of his celebrated financier father. Sarah, on the other hand, has always had to work like hell - as she does for the Domestic Goddess. "But it's killing you," points out Adam. Is it better to die trying? Before long Adam is throwing himself into the Bicycle Boys. But is it to impress Sarah or get revenge on her? Conflicted, he seeks to rebuild their normal family life but Emma clearly has other plans for the couple. When the Domestic Goddess and the Bicycle Boys come head to head for the glitzy Vlogger of the Year Awards Adam realises that he needs to take drastic action.
