Jack is a cruise ship entertainer: Suave, sophisticated and only mildly addicted to late night buffets. After many years at sea, he's forced to return to Yorkshire and visit his sick mother, and his long lost love. He then experiences a world of singing in empty pubs and working men's clubs that he is NOT accustomed to.
Guided by agent Mike Davereux (who insists his surname is NOT the same as Bobby's) a Lancastrian on the wrong side of the Pennine tracks, Jack must adjust to living back with his mum, the loss of his glamorous cruise bubble and bingo. Endless bingo.
