Overdressed

In a contemporary slice of British life, eight men find themselves brought together by chance in a hospital waiting room. A family man, worn down by the demands of running a business and providing for his loved ones, stumbles into a passionate affair with a younger woman. But can he pull back before everything unravels? A young man, deprived of education and family support, teeters on the fringes of society — battling each day through drugs and petty crime in a fight for survival. And then there's our narrator — a self-styled “comedy northerner” and freelance journalist living in the South of England. To him, the seven men in that waiting room may be more than strangers—they might just be his next big story. But at what cost? Five other lives intertwine, weaving the rich, layered narrative of Overdressed — a story laced with humour... until it isn’t.
