5 characters, main characters first.

Main characters

  • Mia (Keep It in the Family)

    Works in PR from home; after years of infertility she becomes pregnant during the renovation, and it is she who finds the message in the skirting board and will not let the house's past alone.

  • Finn (Keep It in the Family)

    Mia's husband, doing the renovation alongside his father. Previously engaged to Emma, and slower than Mia to want the house's history disturbed.

Supporting characters

  • Debbie (Keep It in the Family)

    Finn's mother, cool to Mia from the start and openly nostalgic for her son's former fiancee.

  • Dave (Keep It in the Family)

    Finn's father, in poor health, who works on the renovation with his son.

  • Emma (Keep It in the Family)

    Finn's former fiancee, remembered warmly by his mother and a standing measure Mia is held against.
