A star studded festive comedy. Ellie (Hayley Atwell) is left in charge of an elderly residential home over Christmas, and while most of the residents have left to spend time with their families, four grumpy residents remain. Her youth and inexperience bring her into bitter conflict with retired screen beauty Georgia (Vanessa Redgrave), spinster sisters Hazel (Imelda Staunton) and Heather (Brenda Fricker), and a reformed alcoholic judge, Donald (Joss Ackland). Ellie would appear to be no match for them, but when she is pushed to the very limits she decides to take them on.
