Introducing Hennikay

Available for 86 days

Comedy musician star, Bill Bailey plays Guy Starling, a stressed out, middle aged man who, after 45 years is suddenly revisited by his imaginary childhood friend. Guy is on the brink of closing the biggest deal in the history of Maidstone, but when he strides into his office at Solutify Technology, a software house that develops games for grown-ups, he is confronted by an 11-year-old boy, playing keepy-uppies. And to make matters worse, no one else can see or hear him. Because he is Hennikay, Guy’s imaginary friend from a lonely childhood. Hennikay refuses to leave and though he sees the world through the eyes of a child from 1976, Hennikay might just be in time to help his oldest (and only) friend in the world save the day and close the deal.
