The way most Britons come into contact with the Foreign Office is when they get into trouble overseas. This film follows three diplomats as they try to aid Brits who unexpectedly find themselves in serious trouble on the other side of the world. Ten young backpackers are thrown into a squalid, overcrowded jail in Cambodia facing pornography charges they all deny; an elderly couple haven’t been heard from since their house was destroyed by the most powerful hurricane ever to hit the Caribbean; and a young girl in Iraq, about to be forced into marrying her first cousin, wants to escape back to the UK. In this final episode we meet Sophie Lott, a former probation officer who used to work with perpetrators of honour-based violence in east London. Now at the Foreign Office’s specialist Forced Marriage Unit, she works to help victims.
