Synopsis

Colin (Michael Sheen) is every inch a loser. Hopelessly devoted to his cheating wife Sandra (Jane Robbins), he spends his days behind the counter of his shabby Midlands corner shop and his nights playing darts down the local boozer. Throw in the worst bubble perm since Kevin Keegan played for England, and it's no wonder Sandra runs off to Blackpool with Geoff (Jim Carter), the captain of Colin's darts team. Intent on winning her back, Colin mounts his trusty moped and sets off in hot pursuit. But his eventful journey - and the friends he makes en route - have a transforming effect on this unlikely hero, who comes to realise that the life he's led hasn't been much of a life at all.
