It is well known that reducing calorie intake extends life
dramatically, although few would volunteer to go on the starvation
diets necessary to achieve this. But what if a doctor's research
made a drug that could achieve the same thing while eating a normal
diet? Return to September 1990 when five young men share
accommodation in the East End for their first year of study at
London University. Follow them for 22 more years as they meet up
regularly while each pursues a career -as a research doctor, an
army officer, a banker, a civil servant and a politician. Will the
old flatmates be interested personally or professionally in having
access to such a novel medicine once it has been discovered? Follow
the five ex-students as their different careers interact in
unexpected ways to alter their life expectancy far more than anyone
could have anticipated.
