Programme Information

Danny Boyle's award-winning directorial debut tells the tale of three flatmates, one corpse and a suitcase full of money. David, Alex and Juliet are looking for a new flatmate for their trendy Edinburgh flat and Keith Allen seems ideal. But shortly after he moves in, they find him dead in bed beside a large suitcase full of cash. Should they inform the police or dispose of the body and keep the cash? They choose the latter but there are others after the money who have little to do with the forces of law and order... So begins a dark and sometimes hilarious journey through death, dismemberment and dementia...
