Rob's girlfriend has left him…for Duncan from Blue (Duncan James). Now they're getting married and to make matters worse - they've invited Rob (Daniel Mays) to the wedding.

Rob's quest knows no bounds; he bribes a child in order to win a date with Lisa Snowdon, persuades singer Jamelia to be his best mate, humiliates himself to bag a date with a West End superstar, and inadvertently gets branded a pervert (twice!) while trying to impress his first love.

Will Rob ever find his perfect Plus One?
