Further details

In the wake of his break-up with Jess, Liam devotes himself to a healthier and more productive lifestyle. At the age of 33, he decides it's finally time he learned to drive.

Leeds, early noughties: Ralph - being the first to turn 17 - is only days away from his driving test and the lads are pinning all their hopes on him passing. For Liam, it's a ticket to freedom and adventure. But when he realises it's harder to escape the mundanity of life than he first thought, his frustrations boil over.

Back in the present day, the reality of driving isn't living up to Liam's fantasy either.
