The Hollins family's weekend break takes a peculiar turn when Mr Hollins presents his bad back to a doctor descended from Stevenson's famous physician. He even has the prescription for the potion to hand, which of course gets mixed up with the one for Mr Hollins' embrocation ... A very promising idea, somewhat stalled by a shuffling pace and some cardboard characters.
