Dead In A Week (Or Your Money Back)

Dead In A Week (Or Your Money Back)

William can't take it any more. The futility of existence has become too much. However, after ten failed attempts to kill himself, from bridge-leaping to the old toaster-in-a-bath routine, the young writer (Aneurin Barnard) seems to be as bad at death as he is at life. So he decides to outsource his suicide to an elderly hitman called Leslie (Tom Wilkinson).

Leslie seems very keen; he even has a brochure offering different demise options, from the deluxe 'hero's death' to the no-frills 'quick and painless'. What happens, though, if he changes his mind?

First released: Monday 6th May 2019

Not in the UK?

Fear not! Many items can still be ordered. Amazon in the UK delivers to many international territories, whilst their Australia, USA and Canada stores also supply many equivalent or imported items.

If you are in the North America, look out for US/Canadian flag icons on popular product listings for direct links.

If you order from a UK store, please note that the UK is in Region 2 and B, respectively, for DVDs and Blu-rays - check your player's compatibility, or look for multi-region products if you are located in another region.

If you are in Australia or New Zealand (DVD Region 4), note that almost all DVDs distributed in the UK by the BBC and 2entertain are encoded for both Region 2 and Region 4. The UK and Australasia are in the same Blu-ray region (B).
