Bye Bye Inkhead is a tale about Rita. Desperate, her relationship with her partner is in difficulty and her career needs a kick start- she is tired of looking after her small children - the solution she thinks is an au pair. What follows is a series of the most unsuitable bunch of young women imaginable: A gothic German girl, who arrives off the plane with her neck splattered with love bites. An Italian, who has a soft spot for workmen. The French artist Chantal, who poses nude at her bedroom window and takes photographs of peeping toms gawking at her. A Swedish blond who likes a Swedish massage… This all leads to a point, which seams to have no return - Sex seems history to Rita and Michael and the kids are miserable. But all is not lost, Grace arrives, a new au pair, and restores peace and harmony to everyone, in her own curious and unconventional way.
