About

In this fondly remembered mini series John Byrne, creator of Tutti Frutti, explores the country music scene in an unsentimental portrait of Glaswegian life and culture. Local food and wine correspondent Frank McClusky falls in love with waitress Cissie Crouch. Unfortunately for him, she’s the wife of a convict, who is serving time for a crime he didn’t commit. As Frank’s life becomes more embroiled with Cissie’s he goes on a mission to track down the guilty men.

Tilda Swinton radiates a magnetic, soulful energy as a waitress caught in a tangled web of Glaswegian heartbreak and country music charm. This unsentimental portrait of Scottish life trades glossy sentiment for a sharp, honest look at local culture and messy romance.
