Heartlands

Nice guy Colin (Michael Sheen) is everybody's pal. By day, he runs a corner store. At night, he heads to the pub to play darts--and that's pretty much his life. His wife, Sandra (Jane Robbins), has never been very faithful, but when she runs off with local policeman and fellow darts enthusiast Geoff (Jim Carter), Colin realizes that he needs her, and takes off to Blackpool on a moped in order to win her back. Along the way, he meets a myriad of amusing and helpful characters who aid him in his journey and make him see that he hasn't exactly been experiencing life to the fullest. This warm British road comedy was written by Paul Fraser, a frequent collaborator to Shane Meadows (ONCE UPON A TIME IN THE MIDLANDS, A ROOM FOR ROMEO BRASS).
