- Synopsis:
It's 1988 and Fergus (Jimeoin McKeown) and Wesley (Alan McKee) are enjoying a nice quite pint – Quite that is until they insult Colin, a local gangster, about his hair implants. Things quickly go from bad to worse when the British S.A.S. swoop on Colin and in a bid to escape his vengeance, the lads decide to flee Belfast for Sydney. Life is good down under until their visas run out and immigration officials close in. On the run again, Fergus and Wesley head off in search of beaches, babes and beer but discover Colin has turned informer and is now in Australia as part of the "Supergrass" program. What's more, he's framed the boys for terrorist crimes back home and they're now high on the British Most Wanted list. In the chaos that follows, will Fergus and Wesley head for the hills again or stand and face the music down under? - Actors:
