For disgraced TV presenter Martin Sharp the answers pretty simple: he has, in his own words, pissed his life away. And on New Years Eve, hes going to end it all ... But not, as it happens, alone.

Yet its hard to jump when youve got an audience queuing impatiently behind you. A few heated words and some slices of cold pizza later and these four strangers are suddenly allies. But is their unlikely friendship a good enough reason to carry on living?
