When Londoner Thomas Gynn escapes from his dodgy associations in the capital for a new life up north, he needs to 'stay lucky'. He literally runs in to feisty Yorkshire lass (and damsel-in-distress) Sally Hardcastle on the A1 - getting her broken down car back on the road. Sally runs a narrowboat business in Leeds, and it soon seems that this unlikely couple will be exploring new and uncharted waters together. Thomas takes Sally on a nocturnal visit to pick up some novelty alarm clocks - but instead they inadvertently end up rescuing Europe's number one hitman... in a somewhat unlikely turn of events. He seems rather pleased to have been relieved of his 'Chicago Overcoat', and is keen to repay them for their trouble - but could it have deadly consequences?
Starring Jan Francis, Dennis Waterman, Michael Jayston, Dean Harris, Tim Wylton, Denis Lill, Niall Toibin. Directed by David Reynolds. Screenplay by Steven Moffat.
