Grow Your Own
Loosely based on a real-life allotment in Liverpool, where Balkan refugees were given plots to provide both food and therapy, this charming comedy-drama features the lives of various plot-holders of Blacktree Rd, including a widow who believes her husband has been reincarnated as shy Little John (Eddie Marsan) and grief-stricken Chinese immigrant Kung Sang (Benedict Wong). An astute and gently life-affirming British comedy from writer Frank Cotrell-Boyce ('Millions', '24 Hour Party People').
