A successful television presenter has doubts about the direction of his career in the business and decides to quit to start searching for something more meaningful to do with his life.
After watching the first 5 or 10 minutes I was initially quite overwhelmed by the diversity and colour in the characterisation, nearer the end, as the dynamics of the characters begin the unravel the comedy comes.
I don't think I have actually seen a show quite like this, which is based almost solely on the relationships between the characters. I think it works so well because of the enclosed space in which it is performed, almost like a play.
Acting is generally very good, although there are some glitches in the accents.
Overall this is a petite yet brilliant post modern comedy show.
