It's 1966 and British pop music is at its finest. However the BBC will only play two hours of rock and roll a week! Enter RadioRock, a pirate radio station playing rock and pop for listeners' pleasure 24 hours a day from a ship in the icy waters of theNorth Sea. At its peak, over half of Britain's population, 25 million people, tuned in to the pirates on a daily basis.

Recently expelled Carl (Tom Sturridge) has been sent to stay with his godfather Quentin (Nighy) to get his life back on track.However Quentin is the boss of Radio Rock and its crew of eccentric rock DJs. What ensues is a hilarious adventure of sex,rivalry, friendship and music that became a symbol of social change.

In the middle of all the fun, a government faction led by Minister Dormandy (Kenneth Branagh) vows to silence the pirates inorder to rid the mainland of their "ghastly" influence and lack of morals, and restore order.

As Radio Rock faces its biggest challenge yet, hundreds of devoted fans defy authority and stage an epic Dunkirk-stylerescue of their deejay heroes, proving that some things may come to an end, but rock never dies....

Against a backdrop of classic 1960's anthems, Bill Nighy is joined Philip Seymour Hoffman, Rhys Ifans, Nick Frost, Rhys Darby and Emma Thompson in this year's must have take-home party.
