Two brothers, Damian and Anthony Cunningham, are unwittingly caught up in a train robbery during Britain's countdown to join the Euro. Suddenly finding themselves with a vast amount of cash, the boys have just one glorious, appalling dilemma - how to spend it in the few days before it becomes worthless. Torn between the vices of buying a million pizzas and the virtues of ending world poverty, the boys soon discover that being rich is a mug's game. And not only is time running out, the bungling bank robbers are closing in. Frank Cottrell Boyce's bittersweet story will make you laugh and may even make you cry. Pizza or World Peace - what would you choose?
