Synopsis

As four Londoners head off into the depths of the English countryside to share a little Christmas cheer, they get more than they bargained for.

Soap star Julian Evans discovers his younger sister has been impregnated by inbred pig farmer Carl Sykes, and decides to get out of London and spend Christmas back at his parents' house in the English countryside.

Julian's acting career has gone up the creek since leaving top UK soap, Covent Gardens, where he played the character the nation loved to hate, a paedophile social worker. Amber Jade is writing a feature on Julian for a national newspaper. He's been coming on strong since day one, although Jade has a good idea that it will all be over once the article comes out.

When he invites her to his country home, she doubts his intentions, and insists her Spanish friend, Carlos, comes along for the ride. All Julian wants is to sort out his pregnant sister and avoid an unfortunate family embarrassment. Jade just wants to cement her dubious relationship with Julian and spend Christmas at a country estate.

Unfortunately Carlos wants to cement Julian's sister, along with every other female they come across. And when Carlos laces pig farmer Carl Sykes' little sister, Sam, full of Class A's you can guarantee life for all involved will never be the same.
