Overview

Alan Bleasdale's star-studded comedy/drama about the lives of five plane crash survivors stranded together on a deserted island.

When a plane crashes, five very different survivors find themselves trapped together on an apparently deserted, idyllic island. Everyone else has been killed except for the five survivors that emerge from the wreckage, one unconscious. One of these people, a dedicated film-lover, makes light of their perilous situation by comparing it to countless movie plots.
