Premise
After failing to make it as a DJ, Kent returns to his home village of Neston Berry (a fictional West Country village located somewhere near Yeovil) where he reunites with three school friends: Morpheus, Sarah and Alison. They reside at 'Stoned Henge', a souvenir shop/tattoo parlour, and have various aimless adventures while trying to stave off boredom. These adventures mostly involve getting drunk or smoking cannabis. Sean Bean plays Morpheus' imaginary spirit guide, a fictionalised version of himself but dressed as his character from Game of Thrones.
