Alfie (George Robinson) and Lily (Izuka Hoyle) are in the first flush of love, when Alfie - who is prone to hypochondria - develops a cough. His worries about the cancer that killed his father, Lily’s exes and the malevolent fortune cookie at his birthday meal, result in a lump in his throat. Lily’s efforts - and her hair – seem to be as much a part of the problem as the solution as they both soon discover.
