Home Time is a British television comedy-drama written by and starring Emma Fryer with Neil Edmond co-writing.

At the age of 17, she ran off to find her place in the big wide world, but now she is back, at 29, with her tail between her legs and not so much as a starter home to show for her troubles.

Gaynor cannot hide forever in her tiny time-capsule bedroom with its Trainspotting poster peeling above the single bed and "Wonderwall" still paused on the CD player.

[3] Home Time received a positive critical response, The Guardian describing it as "a brilliant, sophisticated, low-key show"[4] and "as smart and original as it is sad and funny",[5] The Mirror as an "understated, subtle and very clever comedy",[6] Heat as "The best new comedy on the BBC for a long time"[7] and the Financial Times felt that it "attained the same balance of tenderness and acuity that has characterised so many of the greatest British sitcoms, from Porridge to The Office".

[8] Home Time was also nominated for Best Sitcom at both the 2010 South Bank Show Awards[9] and The Rose D'Or.
