The Legend of Rooney's Ring: Wayne and Coleen get their very own summer panto
The benefits of hosting Eurovision are contested. But Liverpool has that song contest to thank, improbably enough, for wooing an exiled writer back to her native city. Helen Serafinowicz is the co-writer of BBC sitcoms Motherland and, more recently, Amandaland. The world of TV, you might think, is at her feet – but instead she's returning to Merseyside with a debut theatre show, a swords-and-sorcery pastiche about the relationship between Wayne and Coleen Rooney, rejoicing in the title The Legend of Rooney's Ring. 'I've started reconnecting with Liverpool recently,' says Serafinowicz, scouse accent unmistakable as she dishes up a cuppa at her home in Norwich. 'And I was invited to the Eurovision song contest in the city a few years ago.' While there, she went to see her friend, the actor Keddy Sutton, in a Jonathan Harvey play called A Thong for Europe at the Royal Court theatre. This was where teenage Helen used to watch heavy metal bands: elitist middle-class theatre the Royal Court is not. 'It seems to have opened itself up to everyone.' And the play? 'It was mad, but very funny. It showed that you can be very silly and true to Liverpool without taking the piss. That unlocked a lot of stuff for me. I began to think I might have some ideas.' The one she went with involved 'a legend that exists in Liverpool of Wayne and Coleen Rooney having this massive argument in their car, and her chucking her very expensive engagement ring out of the window. The next day, everyone in town went out with their metal detectors, looking for it.' Local history? Urban myth? Or pretext for a sub-Game of Thrones summer panto with pop songs and a cameo for Donald Trump? 'Coleen is a princess and her parents are queen and king, and Wayne is a warrior. They get together, they split up, she's broken-hearted and he goes on a quest to find the ring and re-propose to her.' She pauses. 'The theatre says they've never done anything like this before.' It is, she says, 'a love story. I'm not making fun of them. There's no Rebekah Vardy in it. I could have really gone for Wayne with some of the things that have stuck with him from previous news stories. But I don't want to do that.' And as for Coleen: 'She's clever, she's cool, she's just a really interesting person.' She's invited the Rooneys via their agent (no response so far) – and 'I know that some of their family go to that theatre and might come.' Maybe that's why the 51-year-old professes herself 'a bit nervous' about the show. Or is it because the theatre, and writing by herself, are outside her comfort zone? The unglamorous-parenting comedy Motherland was co-written with Sharon Horgan, Holly Walsh and Barunka O'Shaughnessy; so too its recent sequel Amandaland, about which Serafinowicz was 'really not sure,' she recalls. 'Because spin-offs don't have a great record, do they? I was so surprised when we got those brilliant reviews.' Collaborating is tried and tested, then – but 'being on my own is great too, to stick the blinkers on and delve into it'. And as for writing for the stage: 'I just wanted to see if I could.' So has she caught the theatre bug? 'I would do, if the bug had a little bit of money attached to it!' Perhaps writing a local show for local people in Merseyside wasn't the shrewdest way to capitalise on TV success. But it's still pinch-yourself territory for a woman whose primary professional concern until recently was selling vintage furniture. 'I had a shop here in Norwich. It's what Hygge Tygge in Motherland was based on. I bought a lorry-load of mid-century German furniture from this guy selling it at £30 a piece. But the day I signed the lease on my shop was the day Motherland got the nod from the BBC. So I used it as an office. Customers would disturb me while I was on Zoom. It was a strange situation.' Back then, the most famous sitcom writer in Serafinowicz's family was her then-husband Graham Linehan (The IT Crowd; Father Ted), from whom she has since separated. Her brother, meanwhile, is actor, comedian – and host of Netflix's recent Million Dollar Secret – Peter Serafinowicz. But now it's Helen who's hot telly property. 'I'm in a really good position,' she admits. 'People will look at my stuff. There are a million things I want to do, and not enough time to do them.' But first, Rooney's ring. Might it be, in Eurovision parlance, her Waterloo? 'I had a dream that I won a Tony award for the script. Oh, God!,' she groans, tea cups drained. 'It's like exposing yourself, like streaking at a football match. This is just what has come out of my head. I'm really interested – no, not interested, terrified – to see how it goes.' The Legend of Rooney's Ring is at the Royal Court Liverpool, from 18 July to 23 August

There's a quality experts deem a 'must' in a long-term partner - but hardly anyone guesses it correctly
Think kindness matters most in a relationship? Or maybe loyalty, or shared interests? According to two of the world's top mental health experts, you're missing the mark. In an episode of SOLVED, a podcast hosted by bestselling author Mark Manson, psychotherapist and writer Lori Gottlieb revealed that the real secret to a healthy, lasting relationship is something few people ever consider: flexibility. 'The number one quality that predicts whether somebody is going to be a good partner is flexibility,' Gottlieb said. 'You don't want to be with a rigid partner. And what the mental health stuff out there is saying is be really, really rigid. Be super boundaried. You can't be rigid if you want to have relationships.' It's a provocative claim in today's social media landscape, where wellness influencers and pop psychologists often encourage people to prioritise themselves, even if that means cutting off friends, family, or partners at the first sign of conflict. But Manson, who has built a global following by challenging self-help clichés, agreed that modern conversations around mental health and 'boundaries' have become a little too strict. Citing writer Oliver Burkeman, Manson said, 'The friction is the point.' He explained that it's not just tolerating each other's quirks and bad habits that builds intimacy - it's often those very traits that form the foundation of deep connection. 'There's a psychologist named Robert Glover and he said: 'We fall in love with people's rough edges'. 'If our expectations of people, both in friendships and romantic relationships, become too inflated, then we're not willing to tolerate any sort of inconvenience or discomfort. And we rob ourselves of the chance of intimacy,' Manson said. Listeners were quick to relate. One person wrote: 'The internet is obsessed with boundaries. Healthy relationships are not about putting yourself first every second.' Another added: 'My ex was the least flexible person I knew. Makes sense it didn't work.' Others said they'd experienced the opposite - being too flexible for too long with the wrong people. 'People shouting boundaries from the rooftops are people who have been flexible at the expense of themselves with a partner who didn't care about them,' a commenter shared. Ultimately, the conversation wasn't anti-boundary - it was about balance. As one listener put it: 'We grew up with Boomers who didn't know what the word boundary was. Now we live and die by our boundaries, probably too much so. I'm excited for our children to find the balance.' Or, as another summed up: 'Boundaries aren't synonymous with rigidity. But there is beauty in the growth through friction.' So next time you're thinking about whether someone is 'relationship material,' you might want to look past the dating app profiles and dinner-table charm - and ask yourself: are they capable of being flexible when it matters? Because according to the experts, that's what really lasts.
