Nadia and Vera are middle-aged Ukrainian sisters living in Britain and everything - from personality to politics - seems to divide them. But now they have to join ranks as their elderly widowed father Nikolay falls prey to Valentina, a silicone-breasted, bottle-blonde gold digger back from the home country who arrives in the UK with her teenage son and a belief that an old age pension of an engineer will be able to support her taste for brown cookers and posh cars. Many a farcical event ensues and some poignantly moving ones too in a swiftly moving and often funny story.
