Further details
After weeks of putting off the inevitable, Ciara finally agrees to bring her new boyfriend back to meet the family.
All she wants is a quick visit: no fuss and no embarrassment. The Walshes however, don't do 'no fuss'. The quiet, self-effacing Graham must navigate a social assault course of misunderstandings, dad jokes and utter humiliation.
Tony has a very important TV show that he just can't miss and Rory has big secret that he mustn't reveal.
