Why would you go along with your husband’s plan to fake his death and live behind a wardrobe? This droll, laughter-chasing dramatisation of a real-life insurance scam tries to explain it
“John was the sort of man,” Anne Darwin tells us in voiceover early in this drama, “who would buy a Range Rover we couldn’t afford and then spend £3,000 on a personalised number plate.”
We all know that sort of man. Perhaps you’re married to him. If so – and while I’m not a professional marriage counsellor – my advice is: pack a bag and never look back.
