A small African war suddenly becomes the centre of global attention when a team of BBC journalists arrives in Karibu, ready to cover the conflict. Local 'stringer' Harry is hanging on to the bottom of the journalist ladder and thinks the story will be his big break.

There's good news as charity worker Samantha organises a traditional summer fete in aid of boy soldiers, Sons Without Guns.

Elsewhere, Margaret is recording the sound of a zebra's breath, and Harry is teaching local reporter William how to be a famous TV journalist - until a humanitarian crisis brings them all together.

Viva Africa

A new democratic era dawns for the country as the exiled Lion Queen of Karibu returns to a heroine's welcome, a rally and an election. But what does the end of conflict mean for Harry, Grace, Samantha and the Sons Without Guns? What does the future hold for them, and for the country? There's good news and bad as hopeless Harry finally hits his stride but loses his phone, his friends and maybe his future; while David's lack of action in the sack starts to affect his work ... and his colleagues.
