Then:

Back at university Dominic makes a drunken pact with Lucy: if neither of us are married by 35, let''s marry each other.

Now:

They are 35. And they are condering if it could actually work. Dominic''s quit life as a brilliant New York ad exec and moved back to London to find out. Lucy is a single mother and doesn''t know whether to take him seriously.

The proposal would be ideal - if only he wasn''t already married, she hadn''t tried marriage once before, and their sex wasn''t quite so bad...

Can friendship be redesigned to make a marriage?

Or is there too much excess baggage?
