- Synopsis:
This is a fast-talking, fast action comedy telling the story of four middle aged businessmen, sent on a team building exercise in England's Lake District. Set on a freezing November weekend, our four men (Neville - Jeff Rawle, Roy - Martin Clunes, Gordon - Timothy Spall, Angus - David Bamber) used only to fighting for survival in the office, now fight for survival in the wild, armed only with a single portable telephone, whose dying batteries will allow only one short call. What should have been a team building exercise, turns, thanks to Neville's major navigational error, into a frighteningly funny carnival of recrimination and back biting. As hunger takes hold, they discover they have just one cold sausage between them, smuggled out of the hotel that morning. Before their eventual rescue, the losers become heroes, the logicians become lunatics and we find that on this particular weekend there is more than one monster on Neville's Island. - Actors:
