A still from the first performance of Someone's Sitting There

It’s Friday night in the pub, and unlucky-in-love Liv is on her 100th online date — the other 99 have all been car crashes. Liv vows to pack in dating if this one doesn't work out, but her date's already running late, and as she struggles to save him a seat — increasingly tricky as the pub fills up — it becomes symbolic of her last chance for love. Throwing an extra spanner in the works, smooth-talking Dan makes Liv wonder if he might be the lucky number 100. But does Dan have an ulterior motive? And why is Liv's actual date so damn late?
