Best friends Fran and Samantha's mums have agreed to send them on a private French exchange holiday the summer before their last year of A-Levels. They have both been placed with different French families for a month to help them speak and learn the language better. There are two cars waiting at the station to pick them up: Car 1 is an Italian white open sports car with a sophisticated older woman and her skinny film-star-look-alike daughter; Car 2, a rusty old Citroen with a short, fat middle-aged man sitting in the driver's seat. Samantha is silently praying she's not being given a lift in Car 2 - but that's exactly what happens! Reissue.
