Travis's life is perfection. He has the looks, the car, the apartment and the women. Lots of women. Debbie says the sex is revelatory, which doesn't help Sheryl. And then there's Colin. Colin's life is bleak and without hope, and his sex life is so inconsequential that it is hard to assign it a proclivity in any direction. All Colin's dreams come true when, thinking he's working for MI6, he shadows Travis's life and goes on a journey of orgiastic debauchery. But things aren't quite as they seem as the noose tightens on Travis's perfect world. 

Magda cleans up - and it’s more than just housework. She knows all about the call-center worker’s fake dating profiles and what the prospective MP gets up to when he slips into something more comfortable. She even knows about Claire’s secret inheritance, which is more than Claire does - and she knows how to tease out Claire’s husband’s infatuation. But can Magda turn a profit from all this knowledge? A hilarious romp through the private lives that only a cleaner really sees.

Arthur Cholmondely-Godstone is in the business of pensions. He offers a unique pension, from a nonreturnable sum, and he introduces his clients to a new way of living. He encourages them to explore radical views, try extreme sports and to eat, drink and smoke as much as they can. Or put another way, Arthur does his best to kill them.

Gerry doesn't get out much, but when he does he encounters Mandy - free, a little wild, and half his age. But by day Gerry is Gerrard, who is not only married, he’s a vicar. A vicar with doubts.

And ageing gigolo Nelson never sees himself as a messiah until Albert convinces him he can walk on water - or is that just revenge for Nelson having put his head down the toilet at school?
