Off The Hook

Meet Danny, a new university 'fresher' who just wants to cut his past loose and get on with his life... but he's about to get an earth-shattering blast from the past in the form of Shane, his outrageous 'slacker' mate from school - the 'worst best friend ever'. Blagging his way into last minute clearing, Shane proceeds to gatecrash Danny's entire uni existence and ransack his best-laid plans.

Danny and Shane have been friends for as long as they can remember, but as they embark on their university adventures, can their friendship withstand the test?

Sharing the flat with the hapless heroes are the feisty Scarlet and the permanently morose Fred - who has misanthropy down to an art. Follow them muddling through bad dates, worse parties, social mishaps, financial disasters, political coups... and all the other trials and tribulations of life as a fresher.

First released: Monday 19th October 2009
