Kath and Kim is a comedy series about a mother and daughter in the fictional outer suburb of Fountain Lakes. Kath Day (Jane Turner) is enjoying life as an empty nester and has a new man in her life, gourmet sausage-maker Kel Knight (Glenn Robbins). She's none too happy when her lazy, self-involved daughter Kim (Gina Riley) moves back home after problems in her marriage to Brett Craig (Peter Rowsthorn), a computer salesman at Fountain Gate, Kath and Kim's local shopping complex and favourite haunt. Kim's second-best friend, allergy-plagued sports enthusiast Sharon Strezlecki (Magda Szubanski), is another regular fixture at Kath's place.
