Introduction

A "No win no fee" compansation company. That sounds easy, but when some of the cases turn up to be frauds and setting up more seems like easy money... Then things can go wrong - on many levels!

Reviews

We've all probably been contacted at some point by a firm of ambulance chasers like Scorpion Claims - and most of us will have had the wit not to get involved. The Same Deep Water as Me explores a few months in the lives and dodgy dealings of solicitor Andrew, a former London high flier, forced to return to Luton in disgrace for undisclosed reasons, and his slightly hapless boss, Barry. A rich cast of characters is extremely well played throughout, and there is lots of lovely detail - Barry's tea pouring is exceptional, for example. Possibly not for those offended by sweary dialogue but otherwise it mixes comedy and a degree of pathos in a satisfying evening.
