Season eight left fans waiting for answers after Jenny was left dealing with her cancer treatment with her husband Pete, Karen and Adam figured out how to handle their new relationship and the impact that it had on the group, and David began to put his life back together with his friend's support. Speaking about the reaction from season eight, writer Mike Bullen added: "I think we were all overwhelmed by the amazing response to the latest series. Jenny's cancer in particular seemed to touch a nerve with viewers. There are still stories to tell for these characters but I'm conscious that we've raised the bar. The delight at being recommissioned has already been replaced by trepidation at the weight of expectation.”
