Episode 2 of 4

After stumbling across a charity food bank, Tim becomes embroiled in a lie that spirals completely out of control.

Broke, hungry and having been given his marching orders by lazy carer Ruth, Tim heads out to do some grocery shopping. But after a showdown with the world’s most overcautious lollipop lady, Tim finds himself lost in an unknown part of town. Stumbling across a food stall giving out free hot meals Tim thinks he’s hit the absolute jackpot. That is until he reaches the front of the queue and realises that the food is actually meant for the queue of refugees he suddenly realises he’s walked past.
Faced with this moral dilemma, Tim as ever takes the path of least resistance and with scruffy look and dark beard does his best to go under the radar - until he’s spotted by enthusiastic charity worker Benedict. Intrigued by this severely disabled refugees’ story, Tim finds himself embroiled in a lie that snowballs out of control, beginning with Tim claiming to be Syrian ex-skateboard champion ‘Mohammed Ali’ and ending with him fronting a new charity campaign video.
