Timeless

If you can't trust your memory what can you trust?

Martin has a problem, he can’t make new memories. Since he went to the dentist ten years ago, every morning when he wakes up it’s 2008. The last ten years? A total blank. He’s a cabbie with The Knowledge, but he doesn't know what he had for breakfast.

Inspired by a true story, Timeless spends a single day in Martin's bewildering world. It’s strange and unsettling for him, but his wife has the daily heartbreak of explaining just what’s wrong. And the strain is beginning to show.

A single-hander, written by Brian Coyle, directed by Charlotte Peters and performed by John Rayment, Timeless is a compassionate, funny and searching account of how his condition affects the whole family.

Do our memories define us? What if we lose them? And how reliable are they anyway?
