Ted Banks is a washed-up stand-up comedian desperate to get back into the big time with a comeback tour culminating in a slot at the Edinburgh Fringe. But his younger, sexier support act, Luke Taylor, is far more popular than him and most importantly, is actually funny. Unwilling to let the younger generation steal his limelight, Ted embarks on a delusional mission (aided by his unsettlingly obsessed only "fan") to sabotage Luke's career. But will he end up losing the love of his life in the process?
