Brothers Joe (Robson Green) and Trevor (Stephen Tompkinson) Purvis, a couple of Newcastle blokes, set up a construction company and win a contract to totally remodel an old, broken house in London.
Trevor, a sweet innocent, has a wife and baby son. He's been pushed into this partnership by his brother due to rough economic times and is eager to return to Newcastle to his family. Joe, a con man, wants to become a big contractor in London. He's slick, manipulative and a playboy. He also has an ex-wife he still loves and a young daughter he seldom sees.
The story mostly revolves around the brothers' work on the big old house and their relationship with the couple (Neil Stuke, Emily Joyce) who own it.Also appearing are Maurice Roëves as the boys' widowed father Lennie and Darren Morfitt as Simon, their cousin who comes to help with the project.
Not rated by MPAA. Originally aired on BBC-TV beginning in 1998.My personal rating: B
