Outside Bet

In the midst of 1980s economic turmoil, a group of lifelong friends turned to a long shot to turn their fortunes around: investing their redundancy pay into a racehorse in hopes of striking it rich at the final hurdle. Set against the backdrop of a changing Britain - marked by Thatcher's rise to power and Rupert Murdoch's newspaper shift from Fleet Street to Wapping - this comedy tells the story of seven friends who dare to bet on a single horse, one that could either make or break their lives.
