Reluctant Tragic Hero

Tolkachov (Johnny Vegas) a frustrated and exasperated family man, exhausted from running constant and countless errands for friends and family, visits his good friend Murashkin (Mackenzie Crook) to let off steam, and hopefully garner some much needed sympathy. But the result of his rant only serves to see him leaving with more problems than he actually arrived with.
