About this movie

Chris wants to show Tina his world and he wants to do it his way - on a journey through the British Isles in his beloved Abbey Oxford caravan. Tina has led a sheltered life and there are things that Chris needs her to see, but it doesn't take long for the dream to fade. Litterbugs, noisy teenagers and pre-booked caravan sites, not to mention Tina's meddling mother, soon conspire to shatter Chris's dreams and send him, and anyone who rubs him up the wrong way, over a very jagged edge.

Ratings and reviews

.. and beautiful British countryside. If you are like me and like your comedy a little less mainstream, then this is for you, its a simple story with the underlying dark sentiments which everyone will connect with, filled with those annoying types you just wish something nasty would happen to...(in this it does), all the victims deserved to die right?....yes? no? well that's for you to decide.....enjoy :)

Cleverly written, acted and directed, and the attention to detail is remarkable. Often dark comedy can be trite and predictable, but not here. At times, I couldn't stop laughing, even at the subtleties. And, there are some killer gags - I particularly liked Tina's knitted underwear. I never thought I see the day when 'Nuts in May' got usurped, but it has!

I rate it 5 stars easily just for the trailer alone. Can't wait to see if the film is just as good!!!
