| Synopsis: | Set in a small run down hotel in North Devon, owner Trudy returns home to discover her husband Richard in a compromising position with best friend, Sam. After a violent exchange, Richard accidently kills Sam and the desperate couple decide they must dispose the body to avoid jail. Luck appears to be on their side when they are paid a visit from two CID detectives, who are on the search for a serial killer, who just so happens to be an occupying guest at the hotel. Richard and Trudy hatch a plot to frame the wanted man for Sam's death. However, the scheme doesn't go quite according to plan and it's not long before the body count starts to rise. A fast paced rollercoaster of twists and turns, Richard & Trudy is a deliciously crude, dark comedy that will have audiences glued to their seats right up to the shocking and explosive climax! | |||||
