Further details
Matt is leaving home for the first time to move in with Jess, his best friend from school. Matt's parents are worried, particularly his dad - they have always done everything for him. But Matt is determined even though his new carer, Bob, is not all he should be.
Bob is new to the role, and although willing, he somehow manages to spend more time dealing weed and flogging knocked off TVs than cooking Matt's tea. But he treats Matt like an equal, and not all his previous carers have done that, and so the two form a bond. A bond that could lead Matt into an awful lot of trouble. Especially as Matt has never been above exploiting his circumstances if the situation arises - he's always known he could get away with murder (although he's never actually tried that of course.) But who would suspect the disabled guy? Could Matt and Bob become the new Del boy and Rodney? And if so, which is which?

Ask someone to name a famous British disabled person and, more often than not, they'll probably name a Paralympic athlete. It's easy to understand why. The success of Team GB in both London and Rio has done wonders for the profile of disabled people everywhere. Not that you'd always believe that was the case if you listened to the government and some of the mainstream media.
