Stephen Mangan finds himself washed up on the fabled Desert Island Discs beach with his favourite records, book and luxury item, fighting for survival with every other former guest. Surrounded by rotting pianos and useless coffee machines, Mangan finds himself caught up in the power struggle to be island chief and makes himself a powerful enemy. Meanwhile, something lurks in the forest that has the castaways deeply concerned.
