Chrissy's a heart-broken young man, wallowing in agony after being dumped and feeling very sorry for himself indeed. His pals Basher and O'Connor urge him to channel both his "sensitive side" and his "inner shagger" to get over the break-up.
Can the flip of an ancient Celtic coin decide his fate? When out-of-towner Amelia-Rose's car breaks down outside his house - can Chrissy prove the unlikely hero of the hour?
