Cruise of the Gods
Comedy drama in which the star of a 1980s cult TV sci-fi show, now working as a hotel porter, is offered the chance to go on a cruise organised by the show's obsessive fans.
Andy Van Allen, former hero of a cult 80s futuristic TV show Children of Castor, is now working as a hotel porter. In contrast, his ex co-star, Nick Lee, has shot to fame in the USA starring in a highly successful, internationally syndicated mini-series, Sherlock Holmes in Miami.
Things start to look up for Andy when an unusual offer comes along - the Children of Castor fan club has organised a cruise around the Greek islands from Istanbul to Athens and invite him to attend as the principal celebrity. Once aboard however, a combination of Andy's cynicism, his fans' adoration, a misguided sexual encounter and an unexpected death ensure the paradise cruise is far from plain sailing.
With his world spinning out of control it's time for Andy to pull off the ultimate act which justifies the adoration of his fans - it's time for Andy Van Allen to become a true hero.
