Angelo is a widower, Italian and cafe owner. He loves royalty, but has an intolerance to foreigners. Especially tourists who hang out in the cafe all day and only have one drink. Angelo is awkwardly assisted by his daughter Maria, an aspiring X-factor contestant who thinks London is one of the few places on Earth where the talentless can make dreams come true. She is overshadowed by her best friend Alicia who, like all her best best friends, constantly undermines Maria and tries to steal her boyfriend Mickey.
