"The Airport Chaplain" is based on the real-life experience of one of the show's creator, and tells the story of an airport fixer who went the extra mile to recover their luggage. However, in this drama series, Tobias' overzealous approach sees him clash with his new boss, Mia.

With eight episodes, the chaos of the airport will see Tobias and Mia come to blows time and time again. Dropping in double doses, "The Airport Chaplain" will keep us well-fed for four weeks, or you could even binge it all in one go if you have a Netflix subscription.
