SYNOPSIS

Pete  Postelthwaite  is  Hubert Flynn, a bread delivery man who loves his Guinness and horse racing more than his wife, and who one  night comes  home  from the pub to discover that he has been turned into a rat. His wife Conchita (Imelda Staunton) is not impressed.  She  does not  forgive  easily and refuses to take pity on him. But when a ghost-writer knocks on the door offering Conchita to  put  their  story  into  a book  and  then  a  film of the book and then a book of the film, she is sorely tempted to cash in. This sets the stage for a series of  comical adventures for Hubert the rat.
