Brian Marley, a divorced, ineffectual Englishman, is all alone in the vilest jungle on earth, about to die live on television. A reluctant contestant on Brit Pluck, Green Hell, Two Million, the ultimate reality TV show, Marley has somehow managed to outlive his rivals and win enough money to change his life. Except that the entire TV crew has just been wiped out in a multiple helicopter crash. Marley's on his own, desperate to use his GSM camera to leave a last message for his little son, but he can find no signal. With the crocodiles closing in, he has no option but to start climbing the vast cliff at his back. Inevitably, he falls.
And awakes in a lost world that is remarkably like an Englishman's version of heaven. There's cricket and rugger, the Union Jack, plucky boys, pretty girls, a tough but fair headmaster - an entire miniature civilisation preserved by the surviving passengers from a Comet IV which vanished in 1958. Firmly convinced that they were the first casualties of World War III, sustained by stiff upper lips and the Book of Common Prayer, they have kept an idyllic, pre-sixties England alive for nearly fifty years, waiting for the day when the Old Country will call them to do their bit.
