Episode 5 of 5

A father and daughter take a road trip to Moscow to meet his mail order bride. Comedy by Sarah Cartwright with David Threlfall.

Beth agrees to accompany her estranged father on a road trip to Moscow to pick up his mail order bride, but why does she arrive there under her own steam? Did her Dad really abandon her in a park when she was attempting to heal old wounds between them? Has she permanently mucked up her relationship with her boyfriend Christopher? Will she ever be able to say the word 'marriage' without getting a rash? These and other questions are answered in a comedy that crosses both emotional and physical borders.
