Further details

Jaz Milvain asks Ed to curate a moving tribute to him and his work in film for the 'surprise' party that he's organising for his 60th birthday. Whilst Ed relishes the idea of a comedy 'roast' Jaz is looking for something more akin to a light sauté.

So it is that Ed tracks down Jaz's first masterwork, It's a Nude Nude Nude Nude World to form the cornerstone of the tribute, not knowing that Fiona did a few day's work on it.
