Matt had been happily drifting through life – but recently, he lost his job as a bathroom salesman and the tenancy on his home is about to expire. To top it all off, he wakes up one day to find his partner Harriet has left him. He’s hoping for a change of luck when out of the blue he is offered a job that comes with a cheap luxury flat in Harriet’s favourite building, Satsuma Heights. He hopes this might be enough to tempt her back.
Is she just taking a break – or is something far more sinister occurring? What’s his new job really about? And could the purchase of a very long shoe improve his situation?
With the help of a Yorkshire gangster, a luxury bathtub, his cat Goodmonsun and a yoga guru, Matt sets out to find some answers to these questions. In the process, maybe he’ll find out more about what he wants . . . from his life.
Fuelled by beer, soft boiled eggs and loneliness, The Long Shoe is a tour de force and Bob Mortimer’s most thrilling adventure to date.
