This comedy about life, love and relationships in the twenty
first century, shot in London, Liverpool and the Isle of
Man by the directors of Lawless Heart (screened by KFC in
December 2002) features Sam, a charming, young schemer who
has ambitions in the glamorous world of public relations,
his mum Jill (Lesley Manville), an aspiring singer, and
Vince (Bob Hoskins) who gives him the opportunity to move
to London.
However, his best-laid plans, involving Sheila (Stockard
Channing), suffer a real setback when true love turns his
world upside down in the most unexpected of circumstances.
Ultimately about forgiveness, this is a charming and intelligent
affair.
"Funny, likable and
watchable, with some nice performances, particularly from
Bob Hoskins as a lovelorn older man."
Peter Bradshaw, THE GUARDIAN
