Alan Dein crosses the world on a series of late night excursions via Facebook and Skype, discovering the real life dramas behind the online profiles. Among those he connects with are Bryan, whose relationship with his Russian girlfriend has been conducted entirely through Google Translate, and Bill, who stood in a phone box, holding a gun to his head as he came out to his wife. Alan also catches up with Amir, who in the last series was trying to leave Iran, and finds out why he was so keen to go. Producer: Sarah Bowen.
