W Is For Banker

Synopsis:
Yanis Nicolias is a self made lad from North London. He calls himself John Nicolas as it sounds so much better with his mates in the Golden Mile. Johnny has done alright, he's married a posh bird and has perfect blonde kids and they all live happily in their white stucco house in Holland Park. Life is good, or rather was good, until the financial crisis sent him and his company's assets nose diving faster than a kamikaze pilot. the only person left speaking to him is his erstwhile Russian Mistress Lenka who is reaching the end of her very short tether. W For Banker is a hard hitting modern comedy.
