A mismatched friendship created at a graduation party on 15th of July, 1988, and each episode jumps to that same date every year to reveal the progress of Emma and Dexter through their heartbreaks and tribulations in life. Most importantly is their loving friendship in this addictive melodrama with wonderful imperfect well-rounded characters who hold up a mirror to our very own lives.
What works in this mini-series version is how far-apart Emma and Dexter are in all aspects, but somehow have that connection. It is the contrast that will fascinate the viewer and have you binging to the very ending. It is the performances of Ambika Mod as Emma, and Leo Woodall as Dexter, that elevates ONE DAY to a near perfect commentary on the evolution of heterosexual roles in the last part of the 20th century!
