THE STORY: Hollywood actor Tom Cavallero and girlfriend Iona are spending Christmas in the English countryside with his oldest friends, Bea and Kitty. Bea’s new lover, Tad, would rather hole up quietly with Pathology for Beginners. Her daughter, Joni, would rather be in London. And how can anyone relax whilst Iona’s filming their every move?

But who have they become, and what price have they paid?
