Their youngest daughter, Jenny, an enthusiastic but hopeless cook, has been talent spotted by Derek Colbert, the film producer but they are dubious about his motives. In the chaotic Farson household things never go to plan. The Vicar is in a permanent state of confusion and Melinda thinks she has met Gerald's father before. Then an uninvited guest suddenly turns up out of the blue…
