Synopsis:
Jess's son has arranged a weekend getaway in a Derbyshire cottage for her seventieth birthday, with surprise guests in attendance. The problem is, neither her husband nor the son have bothered to turn up themselves, and the guests he's randomly picked from her contacts aren't the ones she'd have chosen to spend her special day with.
