A hairdresser in the West End, Gavin is sensitive, shy, into the arts, prone to spots and, at thirty-one, a virgin. He's a classic late developer - and maybe it's getting too late to develop at all?
Then one night Gavin finds himself at a posh penthouse party and, caught between Joan and Minerva, suddenly he's developing very rapidly indeed . . . Comedy sparkles, touches and seduces us though the next whirlwind fortnight as Gavin begins, at last, to get it right.
