Determined to prevent himself from continuing on his marathon booze session, he employs desperate measures which lead him into a harrowing predicament.

Tam usually restricts any feelings he has for a woman to his penis, but there's something about Louise that has touched his heart.

Angus should be running a sophisticated wine bar in the gay district of London's West End. He's not though. Somehow he has found himself in the less than revered position of landlord of the dilapidated Admiral pub in one of Glasgow's less than salubrious areas.

Melanie, a 32-year-old photographer, is a hopeless romantic looking for ‘The One’. Always seeming to find the wrong one, she believes that Candy and Randy will help her to find true love.

These three single Brits have just 72 hours to find love by following the advice given to them by the Californian gurus and their new book.
