Official Anthony Stewart Head Sensitive Skin BBC Press Release

© British Broadcasting Corp.	Sensitive Skin Series 2 Role: Tom Paine Episodes: 2.03 - The Signals and 2.06 - Here I Am Original air date: July 10th and July 31st, 2007 Network: BBC 2 Davina meets Tom Paine, a personal shopper, who helps her to believe that there is life (and style) after widowhood, as the critically acclaimed metropolitan comedy continues. They visit Davina's mother in hospital but, as her mother's life hangs in the balance, Davina and her sister, Veronica, argue over Davina's "adolescent" new lifestyle.
Davina and Tom's new relationship seems to be going well, but her new neighbour, Lizzie, has some news that may derail her hopes.
Davina is played by Joanna Lumley, Tom by Anthony Head, Veronica by Maggie Steed and Lizzie by Jean Marsh.

It's the final episode of the critically acclaimed second series of Sensitive Skin and Davina's friend, Lizzie, has been waiting for 17,532 days. She doesn't know for what, just that her wait is finally over.

In the face of unexpected tragedy, Davina assesses how far she has actually moved forward.

She helps Ed, who has split up with his 21-year-old girlfriend, get back with his wife of 30 years, Sue.

She helps steady Cheryl's nerves on the eve of her wedding day to Orlando, who's 30 years her junior.

But who is going to help Davina? Even her hopes of some sort of reconciliation with Tom are dashed and, when she visits Roger in jail, it's no wonder she breaks down with the observation that at least he has a release date.

However, a release for Davina may be closer than she thinks...

Davina is played by Joanna Lumley, Lizzie by Jean Marsh, Ed by Patrick Barlow, Sue by Maureen Lipman, Cheryl by Diana Quick, Orlando by James Lance, Tom by Anthony Head and Roger is played by Nicholas Jones.
