Further details
With Sami now anxiously waiting for his substantive interview at the Home Office, and the rest of the family in meltdown, it's a very difficult time for everyone.
To distract him, Katy gets Sami to do a talk at her school, and that turns into an opportunity for Sami to earn some cash in hand. By return, Sami decides to clear the air with Peter, and to help Katy and John by taking them to meet new friends at the refugee centre. But when this well-intentioned trip leads to something much more sinister, Sami is left with a situation that requires help from an unlikely direction.

Press
After a poor start, writer-star Rufus Jones's comedy-drama has matured into a thought-provoking meditation on statelessness, ornamented by a few tension-relieving jokes. This week, Sami makes up with Peter and turns guest teacher as he gives John's class an important lesson.
