Zonad is from space… probably. Or so the Cassidy family assume when they discover an apparent alien in a shiny red space suit and helmet passed out on the living room floor beside the drinks cabinet. The Cassidys and the people of Ballymoran make the intriguing visitor feel very welcome (and in the case of mother Mary and teenage minx Jenny, they make him feel very welcome indeed). At first, Zonad tries to resist the villagers' overtures, but the procession of wanton women and free beer soon gets the better of him. Why give up on a good thing?

A rural family contends with a deceased uncle who refuses to stay in his grave.
