Yes – the band is back in town! Michael, Chris and Dev are returning to Ibiza and the hotel where it all began thirty years ago… But Michael’s stuck in London, Dev’s got a bad back and Chris… well, he’s just Chris. And it turns out that none of them are in their twenties anymore! As this middle-aged trip down memory lane is about to hurtle off the tracks, Holly and Amy arrive, so down-to-earth they might just save our feckless heroes from really humiliating themselves…
