How To Lose Friends and Alienate People
Synopsis
It seems Sharps editor Clayton Harding is amused by Young's disruption of a post-BAFTA party with a pig posing as Babe. Thus begins Sidney's descent into success - his gradual move from loser to confidante of starlet Sophie Maes - and a love affair with colleague Alison Olsen, that will either make him or break him.
