Jack had lots of dreams…10 years ago. Whilst studying Cosmology at university he was Captain of the Le Crosse team and pulled Pippa – the hottest girl on campus. He became Deputy Junior Senior Customer Service Analyst for a carpet cleaning company and the hottest girl on campus became a bitter housewife.
Jack always hoped to complete his ‘Fiscock’s Tarditas on the Stars’ and finally regain his self-confidence. But life just kept getting in the way and he became disillusioned by the world. He had an early mid-life crisis, without the sports car, when he realised that his temporary job had unwittingly become his career. Also, to revive their flagging relationship he and Pippa had a son, Chris. A screaming child failed to have the desired effect and now Pippa has thrown Jack out of the family home in favour of Eddie, the boss from hell. To top it all off Eddie has fired Jack because of the “social awkwardness that occurs after you sleep with your employee’s wife.”
We meet Jack after he has moved off his best friend Shaun’s sofa and into what can only be described as a shit flat. He’s hit rock bottom and needs to pull his life back together. At a moment of near mental breakdown Jack avows to take control and get his wife and child back. At that same moment, the dimensional ϋberverse is revealed to him. Is it a coincidence of fate or has Jack lost the plot?
