- Synopsis:
- Miles Pope (Lenny Henry) is a struggling black actor whose life takes a hilarious turn for the worse when he unwittingly discovers a ruthless mobster's most guarded secret. To save his neck, Miles enlists the help of an eccentric makeup whiz who concocts a brilliant disguise to conceal his 'true identity'.
