The three-part psychological drama is focused on the competitive world of middle management.
Sticks and Stones centres on the personal and professional life of Thomas Benson; a hard-working father and husband.
When he freezes during a pitch the fall out is monumental.
Determined to win back the client Thomas goes to increasingly desperate lengths to remain successful.
Has he lost his confidence and just feeling paranoid or is his own team, and maybe the wider world, now out to get him?

He is good at his job and feels respected by his colleagues Andy, Isobel and Becky and his boss Chris Carter.
Thomas and the team give a pitch presentation to Janice Lancing and her team at Murray Technology but when the presentation goes badly wrong, Thomas panics and faints in front of everyone.
The team has lost a potentially large contract and with it the lucrative bonuses that would have been coming their way.
The team seem to lay the blame firmly at Thomas’ door.
Is it his imagination or are his colleagues now out to get him?
How will Thomas react when his work life is threatened?
