Tom and his wife are adopting a baby. It’s the happiest day of their lives – or it would have been if Tom’s brothers, Dick and Harry, hadn’t decided to help.

The result of Dick and Harry’s ‘assistance’ produces two illegal immigrants, a dead body and a van load of contraband cigarettes. 

With the arrival of the Supervisor from the Adoption Agency and the local Police Constable Tom’s ingenuity is stretched to the limit. But things couldn’t get worse, could they? Oh, yes they could!

The ever-helpful plans of Dick and Harry continue to go haywire and, in addition to the immigrants, the cigarettes and the dead body, they further lumber Tom with a Russian Mafia Mobster and a reality TV programme. Then it starts to get complicated!!
