Synopsis
A comedy telling four separate stories about relationships; all taking place in the same suite of a London Hotel overlooking Hyde Park. A sedate place until the following characters check in.
- An inebriated Welsh writer and his agent.
- A widow accompanied by her daughter, who spends her last evening in London with a rich Scotsman.
- An Oscar winning actress and her, now divorced, bi-sexual husband who are seeing each other for the first time in years; a bitter-sweet tale.
- A married couple from New York who have lost their tickets to Wimbledon and are now in danger of losing their suite to Kevin Costner.
