Kelsey is at breaking point. Newly single, her ex-partner has left her with a baby to look after, bills piling up in her name and a stream of misdirected post.

Her mother, Maureen, isn't doing much better. Habitually nervous, she convinces herself her daughter is about to do something drastic after a fraught phone-call and reports of Kelsey heading towards Sheffield's Fargate district with a suspicious looking package.

After rounding up her family of misfits, Maureen heads off in pursuit in the hope of averting a potential bank robbery.
