More than just terminal embarrassment stands in the way of their happiness, however. Her father, for example, takes a violent dislike to Bandy – even before Bandy blows up Cyril Chaffington’s hotel. And then who should turn up but the diminutive Dasha, the former Bolshevik (sort of) nurse whom Bandy married (sort of) in Russia, where she betrayed him (more or less) to the mercy (or lack thereof) of the Red Cavalry. Between sorting all of this out, carrying airmail, and trying to start his own aviation business while dodging flappers and bootleggers, Bandy hardly has time to be a silent movie star...".
