  Dudley is suicidal. And why not? He's Swindon's seventeenth best news photographer, dresses in casualwear, and sings 'Lady in Red' as spiritual salvation. Oh, and his wife just left him. He decides there is only one escape from his pain.

  Ralph is at ease with the world. And why not? He's the best there is, calls himself 'John Smith', dresses in Armani, and carries a Heckler and Koch PSG1 sniper rifle. But you'd never know. If forced to speak, he would say that he's in the business of 'pain removal'.

  Two men. Two lonely hotel rooms.

  An adjoining door...

  On any other day Dudley would have successfully ended things. On any other day Ralph would have successfully ended someone.

  But not today... Today's different...

  A new adaptation of Veber's popular 1970s farce.
