Helen Keen
Helen Keen divulges what happened when she stumbled upon the fact that the long-lost love of her twenties was getting married. After some online stalking, she decided that - by the look of her tweets - the new lady "may have got him... but never really got the use of the possessive apostrophe".
Featuring: Helen Keen.
