Sarah Francis es una profesora a quien le dejan a cargo del carlino de su abuela, que acaba de fallecer. Hay un problema: no se admiten mascotas en el edificio de apartamentos de Sarah. Sin embargo, no está sola, pues pronto se revela que su vecina Celia ha estado escondiendo su propia mascota en su apartamento por un tiempo. Al principio, el carlino, que está increíblemente mimado y desordena todo, no causa más que estrés a la pobre Sarah, aunque está claro que lo que necesitan es un poco de tiempo para conocerse mejor antes de que la vida de Sarah dé un vuelco a mejor.

Amicus Vault of Horrors
Himself / Narrator
A definitive documentary charting the rise and fall of Amicus film productions.
Chas & Dave Last Orders
Himself
Documentary which highlights cockney duo Chas & Dave's rich, unsung pedigree in the music world and a career spanning 50 years, almost the entire history of UK pop. They played with everyone from Jerry Lee Lewis to Gene Vincent, toured with The Beatles, opened for Led Zeppelin at Knebworth - and yet are known mainly just for their cheery singalongs and novelty records about snooker and Spurs. The film also looks at the pair's place among the great musical commentators on London life - and in particular the influence of music hall on their songs and lyrics. The film crew followed Chas & Dave on their final tour, having called it a day after the death of Dave's wife, and blends live concert footage with archive backstory, including some astonishing early performances and duets with the likes of Eric Clapton. Among the experts and zealous fans talking about their love of the duo are Pete Doherty, Jools Holland and Phill Jupitus. Narrated by Arthur Smith.
