Florence (Dawn French) and Selina (Jennifer Saunders) are nominated for a writer's prize and the contest becomes a battle between the two sisters. Florence is invited to the Hay Book Festival as she's been nominated for the prestigious Bronte shield - but Florence's joy and delight turn to anger and disappointment when Selina is also nominated, for her kiss and tell autobiography, Kiss And Tell. As every female author in Britain, and Lionel Shriver, drop out in protest, the contest for the award becomes a battle between the two sisters.
