Cast Offs

Series 1 Episode 1
First Broadcast: Tue 24 November 2009

Six months in a wheelchair, Dan is sweet, slightly naive, and liable to have his pants nicked and stuffed into a post-box.

Or at least he is when he's playing with the local wheelchair basketball team (which he's only doing because his Dad thinks it's a really good idea).

Dan arrives on the island (also his Dad's bright idea) and meets the other cast-offs for the first time. He begins a journey that will involve quite a few bumps in the road.

Particularly bump-some is Carrie, who is three-foot-tall, but has an ego the size of a small country, and she seems to be able to read Dan's mind. This is going to be quite some ride for Dan.
