Sammie is fed up with life at home. Her dad's left and all her mum cares about is going to the local disco to find a new man. Sammie's trying her hardest to raise some sponsor money for charity, but when things don't go to plan she ends up telling a whopper of a lie and winds up in all sorts of trouble.
