It's a sunny summer Saturday and four couples gather for a weekend of tennis.
Meet the tournament hosts: self-made man Patrick and his brash and beautiful wife Caroline, out to impress with their new country house.
Meet the guests: Stephen and Annie, their impoverished former neighbours; social climber Charles and his aristocratic new wife Cressida, and the ruthlessly competitive father-and-daughter team Don and Valerie.
As the first ball is served over the net so begins two days of Pimms, tantrums, flirtation, deviousness and shock revelations. It soon becomes obvious that the weekend is about anything but tennis.
