The Alpha ‘mail’ of the Masood family, good-natured postman Masood spends much of his time smoothing over the problems caused by his wife, the formidable Zainab.
As well as his mail run, Masood also has a stake in restaurant Masala Queen. Now that there’s another Masood on the way, he’ll need all the money he can get.
Masood may sometimes stamp his foot, particularly when it comes to his wayward son Syed, but with a hot-headed wife like Zainab, life is mostly a peace-keeping mission...
