The synopsis for the six-part series says that it is a "story brimming with humour and love".
The synopsis continues: "Set in the 1970s in a secluded canal-side caravan park deep in the luscious English countryside, its peace is irrevocably disrupted by the arrival of Lela (Doherty) and her 11-year-old child, Bee (Liebreich), both on the run, looking for refuge in this hidden world.
"It is here that a fractured family will come together, ghosts of the past will firmly be put to rest and an unexpected love is forged.
"Bill Nighy and Helena Bonham Carter star as Jerry and Eddie, Lela’s parents, ballroom champions of the 1930s who became wartime runaways and are still hiding, three decades on, while Tom Burke co-stars as fairground outcast, Cooper, whose turbulent past will explode into California Avenue.
"Kate Robbins plays Priscilla, the formidable force running the caravan site alongside her husband, site manager and jack-of-all-trades, Kevin, played by Paul Kaye."
California Avenue will air on BBC One and BBC iPlayer.
