After a fumble under the sheets two decades ago, Debbie and Peter realised they'd be better off as friends, and that's just what they became for two decades.

You'd think this would be the start of a comedy of errors where one of them changes their mind, leading to them having to stay together and realise why they actually love each other. But no, Debbie and Peter really do spend the majority of the movie in two totally separate cities, sharing only a couple of scenes where they're in the same place.Your Place or Mine
