Ibiza

Then the camera spins around to reveal a room of soldiers hooting at these sexy squats, partying as hearty as if this were a nightclub in Ibiza, not an outpost in the War on Terror.

These days we may dread a more contemporary version: Think Kimberly and Justin from the outer metropolitan suburbs, with their NCAA-branded leisure wear and mirrored shades, their Instagram “discoveries” of well-known Amsterdam or Ibiza nightspots and their exaggerated comic dismay at the unfamiliar food, volatile prices, small beds and tepid showers.

The warmest weather is expected to be in the west of London out towards Oxfordshire and the south Midlands, and could be hotter than Marbella and Ibiza in Spain.

The film, which opens nationwide on 4 April, follows McCardle as Edward, a gay Irish writer who finds himself at the mercy of his own elderly mum, played by Fionnula Flanagan, and three other mothers, abandoned for the weekend while their sons go off to enjoy themselves at a Pride event in Ibiza.

The play begins at a marital crisis point in 2020 and unwinds all the way back to the couple’s first meeting in Ibiza in 2004.
