Conville & Walsh

When Jane, Edward Middleton’s girlfriend of ten years, announces that she’s dumping him to go off travelling to ‘find herself’, his world is turned upside down. ‘It’s not me, it’s you,’ she tells him. ‘You’ve let yourself go. So I’m letting you go too.’

Edward’s shocked by the fact that Jane’s gone, but stunned by the fact that she’s right. Whatever happened to the good-looking man-about-town he used to be? Determined to win her back, he knows he’s got to do something, and fast. Jane’s back in three months, so it’s time to stop moping, and start coping.
It’s not that women don’t like Edward. Quite the opposite, in fact, but just not in that way. He has to find out how to make women fancy him again – if he’s to be
Jane’s Mr Right, he needs to turn himself into a bit of alright.

Advised along the way by best friend and serial womanizer Dan, Edward struggles to get to grips with the twenty-first-century dating scene, discovering pretty soon that the battle of the sexes isn’t a fair fight. And so begins his self-improvement odyssey; through Atkins, Botox, cosmetic dentistry, exercise…

Finally, the three months are up. Has Edward managed the transformation from cuddly Teddy to sexy Eddie, and if so, will he be able to win Jane back? Or has his journey of self-discovery taken him in a different direction entirely?
