Man Dancin’

When Jimmy Kerrigan (Alex Ferns) is released from jail after 9 years inside, everyone expects him to fall back into his old ways. But Jimmy’s changed, says all he wants to do is open a bar on a Greek island once his parole is up.

Problem is, nobody believes him – not least his former gangland boss, Donnie McGlone (James Cosmo) and Jimmy’s old adversary, Detective Inspector Walter Villers (Kenneth Cranham). They both think Jimmy’s up to no good, branching out on his own. The jury’s out.





Enter Father Gabriel Flynn (Tom Georgeson), the man in charge of Jimmy’s anger management classes. He sees something in Jimmy nobody else does and to the amazement of all and sundry asks him to play Jesus in the church’s annual passion play. Faced with the prospect of endless anger management classes, Jimmy agrees. It’s a decision which is to have repercussions throughout the entire community and to throw McGlone and Villers’ cosy world into turmoil. Jimmy Kerrigan is back alright – with a vengeance!



Starring: Alex Ferns (Eastenders; Randall & Hopkirk (Deceased)); James Cosmo (One Night In Emergency; FlashForward; Game Of Thrones)
