Naomi

Naomi is a dedicated youth worker in the voluntary sector and is married to Ravi. Naomi is motivated, precious and demanding both of herself and her daughter.
Tony

Jasmine
Jasmine is the spirited daughter of Naomi and Ravi.
She is about to turn 16, and her parents have bought her an expensive pedigree Retriever to try and teach her a sense of responsibility. Charlie the dog totally disrupts their family life though and Naomi ends up in desperate need of help.
