Oxford, 1964. Student Derek Bradley, jilted by his study partner/girlfriend, is desolate – and worried about his final exams. To cheer him up, his drinking partners challenge him to engage a fiancée in the next ten days, getting a signed agreement. And then do it eleven more times!
Next morning, Derek realizes that it’s the last day of term, and almost everyone will leave Oxford today for the Easter holidays. Luckily, Chris, the second of his new ‘fiancées’ offers to track down other women candidates in the near-deserted colleges. But with refusals, rain soakings, a threat of arrest, and other challenges, the deadline rushes ever nearer. . .
