Multiple bullets, multiple targets, one name. Pop quiz: someone is running around London killing your namesake. What do you do? Do you run? Do you stay and fight? If you're quasi-famous YouTuber Ben Lyk (Eugene Simon of Game of Thrones), you vlog about it and hope for the best. That is, until Scotland Yard, in order to sort this mess out, rounds him up along with every other Ben Lyk in town keeping them holed up in a safe house that isn't so safe. And once the Ben Lyk's begin dropping one by one, it's a mad dash to figure out why this is even happening.

A powerful adaptation of Joanna Nadin's book about a young boy finding optimism, adventure, and friendship in deprived circumstances, Joe All Alone is the story of thirteen-year-old Joe Holt, left behind when his mum and unsavory boyfriend take a sudden week-long holiday. With just a handful of money for the electric meter and a fridge half-full of leftovers, Joe stays up all night (and regrets it), counts off the days... and discovers a bag full of cash hidden in the flat. That's only the start of Joe's adventures - particularly when the adults fail to return after the week's over.
