Uptight dentist Suzy Darling leaves her egotistical husband Steve and moves her children, Elvis and Verity, into a beautiful penthouse apartment to start a new life. She soon finds that the home is already occupied, by Henry, a strangely attired British man who has lost his memory. To make matters more mysterious, it soon becomes apparent that no one but Suzy can see him.
Suzy and Henry are still coming to terms with their new living arrangements when they learn that Henry was front man for legendary British punk rock band The Nerve. Desperate to learn who he was, how he died and just why he is here, Henry annoys Suzy at every chance and is soon wreaking havoc in her life.
Henry wakes up on the rooftop of The Elysian apartment block, with memories of past glories starting to flood back in his dreams. Feeling more alive than ever, he sees the opportunity to be reborn via the magic of the internet and with Suzy's help contacts his loyal followers through a fan website.
Henry's angst continues to roar through his dreams and he wakes to find a shrine of sorts out the front of The Elysian: the call he sent out through the internet has been answered! Henry tries to convince a sceptical Suzy these fans should be encouraged when he catches sight of a bearded man in Suzy's dental surgery who drops lines that sound awfully familiar.
When Henry and Suzy meet in a dream in Manchester, 1982, new possibilities for their relationship unleash a previously unspoken sexual tension that is played out through a series of dreams and unexpected encounters.
Suzy and Henry's new found intimacy is making Suzy nervous. But thankfully for Suzy, a major distraction comes looming when an odd, officious little man turns up and starts poking around the apartments asking questions about ex-residents.
Suzy faces the unpalatable reality of life with a ghostly stepson, Apollo, who has transformed into a filthy mouthed, badly behaved, overgrown baby, quickly making The Elysium uninhabitable for the residents. But it's when he lures Elvis and Verity into the ghostly realm and great danger that Suzy and Henry are forced to find a way to make him leave.
With Apollo vanquished, life returns to something like normal at the Darling-Mallet household, Henry accustomed to his role as invisible family member, while Suzy suffers strange symptoms of a mystery illness. When a patient dies in her dental chair and a yellow cab to The Other Side arrives out the front of The Elysium, Suzy is convinced it's proof of her imminent passing.
