Roland Dickerby runs a health farm with his wife Julia, bought with the proceeds of a hefty insurance pay-out on the demise of Julia's first husband, Sidney.  Life isn't easy for Roland and today Fate has something extra special in store for him: Sidney has decided to resurrect himself and turns up at the farm, just as Vanessa, the wife of Roland's ex-boss from the Kindly Mutual, checks in for a health-giving visit. What  could possibly go wrong?
