It's November 1994 and four out of condition, middle-aged businessmen, sent off on a team-building exercise in the Lake District succeed in being the first people to get shipwrecked on an island in the middle of Derwent Water.
Bound in by fog, menaced by wildlife and cut off from the world, this perfunctory middle-class exercise turns into a carnival of recrimination, French cricket and sausages. What should have been a bonding process for Gordon, Neville, Angus and Roy turns into a muddy, bloody fight for survival.
