Georgie, aged 12, claims to be looked after by her uncle Winston Churchill, but in fact, she lives alone. The girl's life turns 180 degrees as she meets her dad for the first time.

She does everything her own way. She cooks what she wants, looks after her spiders, enjoys every free moment with her friend Ali, and pays her bills by stealing bicycles. A savvy teenager living in the suburbs of London doesn't need anyone else to be happy. This is why she is at first reluctant to host her dad, who has returned from Ibiza to look after her. On top of that, Jason is not acting like a very responsible parent anyway – he finds it difficult to cook and is constantly leaving a mess behind! Understanding each other won't come easy, but daughter and father will learn that it's good to have a loved one by your side in spite of your disagreements.
