Quarantine
By Jeff Young. Milton Parker traipses the dismal streets of Rhyl putting leaflets through doors. He is scared of envelopes, of germs in mayonnaise, of letterboxes and pizza-delivery bikes. When he's nominated for the Pamphleteer of the Year award, Milton has to find a "Plus One". Doreen Wilson , a 73-year-old agoraphobic recluse, agrees to be his date. As they head towards the big night, determined to re-engage with the rest of humanity, will this unlikely pair take their place at last in a world where they are not afraid?
