Sade Layode (Ronke Adékoluejo) has turned 25, dramatically quit her job to be a writer, and decided to tell her friend Zeke (Michael Workeye) how she really feels, all before 10am.
When her best friend, the free-spirited Dela (Racheal Ofori), prescribes a day of decadent distraction to celebrate turning 'twenty-thrive', Sade's quickly on board. Bumping into her old crush Tayo (CJ Beckford) wasn't in the plan, but that meeting, alongside avoiding telling her mother she's quit her job, and a chance encounter with an icon, are just a few of the twists and turns that Sade's birthday has in store for her.
Big Age airs Friday 10th September at 11:05pm on Channel 4.
