Life imitates art when a rich industrialist and frustrated singer with eyes for a conductor decides to stage an opera at his lavish country retreat.

When Jeremy (Matthew McNulty) wakes from his stag-do with a transvestite in his bed and scant memory of the night before, Best Man Peter (Noel Clarke) and buddies Ralphus, Albert and Jack muddle through the fog of their hangovers to reach the church on time. Meanwhile, blushing bride Alexandra (Talulah Riley) wakes nervously from her hen night, which ended with sex-crazed Anisha bedding the male stripper. Fellow bridesmaids Sarah (Mena Suvari), Julie and Helen attempt to keep Alex sane as the moment arrives to walk down the aisle and say, “I do”. Both hilarious and heartfelt, The Knot is the perfect blend of British romantic comedy at its best.
