If they can't be honest with themselves, and everyone else, then things are going to get a whole lot more complicated.

Toby Grant insists life was easier for his parents' generation... fate intends to show the aggrieved millennial if he's right.
Toby Grant spends his days working for a digital marketing agency and his nights stressing about how unfair life is for his generation. With a thirtieth birthday only months away and his finances approaching meltdown, it's fair to say Toby isn't a happy millennial. His parents' generation had it so much easier ... or did they? After a series of rather unfortunate events, Toby is offered an opportunity to discover exactly what life was like for his parents' generation; courtesy of a journey back in time to 1969. However, life in pre-decimal Britain isn't quite as simple as Toby envisaged. And neither, as it transpires, is time travel.

But perhaps this war needs a different kind of hero.
