Product Description
Three London motorcycle couriers Fred (Gary Stretch), Tyg (Geoff Bell) and Grouch (Phil Daniels) set off from the capital in search of an elusive hippy and his cannabis farm in the Welsh mountains. Originally intended as a nice weekend in the country, Fred has now found himself making a promise to his old friend the Chairman that whatever situations arise he will not return empty handed. Grouch has also made a promise that come Monday morning he ll be moving himself and his belongings into his new found love Lucinda s flat, and finally making an attempt at the world of serious relationships. As for Tyg, no such pact. This is a man who s never been further than the outskirts of London, and as far as he s concerned an industrial unit near Heathrow Airport is pretty much the back of beyond. No, Tyg s out to explore; to broaden his horizons; to lose any ignorance and soak up the hospitality of another nation. But, what are those wild beast noises coming from the woods and why are there two gangs of bikers in the area about to settle an old score? Throw in a seven foot, masked, lovesick Russian wrestler and things could really get out of hand. That said, it may also have something to do with the wild mushrooms they had for breakfast. It s a three and a half hour journey from London to the Welsh mountains, but for Fred, Tyg and Grouch it s just about to turn into the trip of a lifetime.

Synopsis
Three London motorcycle couriers embark on a journey to find a cannabis farm in the Welsh mountains. However, they ingested some wild mushrooms for breakfast...

5.0 out of 5 stars A Future Classic - 100%, 3 Jun 2008
This is a small budget britflick and I wasn't sure how I would enjoy it when my husband took me to see it. I needn't have worried, it was absoloutly hysterical, it was well written with a typical British sense of humour. The guy who reviewed it earlier on must have been watching it in his sleep as everyone who was in the cinema with us was roaring with laughter. I have only seen a few other films that has had the audience laughing out loud so much. I am now buying the DVD as I have been dying to see it again.

5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely brilliant!!!, 12 Sep 2008
The big cinema companies don't go for this type of movie, preferring the blockbuster productions with mega effects & a star packed cast. More fool them because this has the makings of a film that will grow & grow in popularity.

It's another (in a long line of) Britflick which successfully blends good acting (Phil Daniels looks as if he were born to the role!), great script which moves along nicely, a sound plot, fab soundtrack & scenery which we all too often forget about (must get to Hay On Wye more often!).

Make no mistake, this is a "must see" & it tips a nod to other movies such as Zulu, Easy Rider & even Braveheart - I suppose you'll have to watch it to see what I mean.

I don't want to spoil the film for future viewers, but the fact that the 3 central characters play bikers stoned out of their minds for most of the film certainly strikes a chord with me!

Enjoy & celebrate the fact that we still make excellent, quirky films like this.

5.0 out of 5 stars DONT BELIVE A WORD., 29 May 2008
By support81 "support81" (rugeley, staffs United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
Well the last bloke reviewing this film has obviously got a personal vendetta on someone because me and my friends gave it a spin on the off chance one dreary wednesday afternoon and laughed out loud all the way through, the acting was great, the story was great, its a heap load of fun, perfect to liven up a dull night sat at home with the wife!!
