Summaries

A romantic coming-of-age comedy from the ungrittiest of regions - The English Home Counties. It follows teenager Lance on his failing attempts to have the ultimate party and get the girl.

In the definitively middle-class Royal Tunbridge Wells, 16 year old Lance has been romantically obsessed with Steph "the fittest thing since sliced fit" for exactly "3 years, 11 months and 25 and a half days". And he's barely even spoken to her. Unable to approach Steph, but desperate for something to change, Lance faces his worst fear - of holding 'the worst party ever' when his parents go away for the weekend. Enlisting his enigmatic, porn-addicted best mate Henry to help plan things, Lance tries to work out what to do when "You've got no girls, no idea and 24 hours to throw a party".—Mike Laloe

Terrified of holding the 'worst-ever party', the over-honest and over-obsessive Lance faces his fear when his parents go away for a dirty weekend. He and porn-addicted best mate Henry plan the party, the only problem being that they are each planning different parties. When Steph, Lance's perfect woman, turns up with the man-eating Abby and the man-hating Heather (plus some unexpected gatecrashers) and when Henry's plan kicks in, Lance sees his dreams painfully fall apart as the worst-ever party gets progressively worse. But is there light at the end of a very dark tunnel?—Anonymous
