On A Clear Day
Made redundant after a lifetime's work in the Glasgow shipyards, Frank (Peter Mullan) feels lost and discarded. His wife (Brenda Blethyn) and son are sympathetic, but that only makes him feel worse. Then one day, swimming with his mates at the local pool, someone mentions swimming the English Channel. At first everyone thinks he's mad, but Frank has a new purpose and he's determined to see it through. A heart-warming and very British comedy/drama which also features Billy Boyd, Sean McGinley and Ron Cook.
