High & Dry

Most of us know who we’d take with us to a desert island, but it’s a safe bet that no one would choose annoying air steward Brett Sullivan from High & Dry

Most of us know which people we’d take with us to a desert island, but it’s a safe bet that no one would choose to be stranded with annoying air steward Brett Sullivan.

But that’s just the fate that befalls a group of hapless tourists in this promising sitcom, after they find themselves castaway in a tropical paradise following a plane crash.

Marc Wootton – who created the series – has the time of his life as Brett, and he’s ably supported by Harry Peacock (Toast of London), Vicki Pepperdine (Getting On) and Asim Chaudhry (People Just Do Nothing).

Think US drama Lost, but with lots of laughs.
