If you want something done right, you should go right to the top, eh? At least that's what 12-year-old Colin Mudford reckons. After all, a big brother has responsibilities.
Colin has a mission. He wants to speak to the Queen about his brother Luke who has cancer. Cousin Alistair would like to help but stress brings on his dandruff. Colin takes the lock off the back door and heads out alone. Adapted from the best-selling novel by Morris Gleitzman.
This poignant and powerful is sure to inspire the whole family.
