In this darkly humoured vision of a near future, the authorities have declared that any adult who does not conform to the newly minted English standards of 'normal' must be married to somebody who does, by midnight tonight. Or else.
Tom and Ned are running out of time. Fast. With the clock ticking, do they find a wife at the Wedding Fayre... or do they fight back?
