East Midlands Babylon

Synopsis

Every Saturday, Colin, Neil, Dexter and Darren cruise the streets of Nottinghamshire, talking about any subject that comes into their head. At home their wives and girlfriends wonder what keeps them out of the house all day and how four grown men can be so indulgent of a juvenile pursuit. As the day unfolds and a dare to partake in an activity that may test the moral fibre of the group begins to unearth deep rooted resentments, the guys come to realise that maybe they have grown apart and not acknowledge it up until now. Decisions, arguments, accusations and confrontations, lead the four friends back to their home town where life is waiting for them. And the harsh reality that we all have to accept ourselves and situations sooner or later.
