Gentle study of 2 blokes who pretend to their wives that they've got jobs, but spend their day mucking about and drinking cheap plonk on the hills above Greenock, west of Glasgow. All cars seen in first 3 minutes - nothing afterwards.

- few to play with - there's a Saab 99 4 door [Image: loki8.gif], Manta [A], 1501 estate etc

Shipyard cranes - now long closed:

:wow: So the pictures of the cranes and the shipyard are probably from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scott_Lithgow ?

Yes - it's the Scott yard in Greenock. The director was Peter McDougall from Greenock who did several of these TV films locally. His next one was Just a Boys' Game which has a sequence actually in the yard and in one of the cranes.

The last remaining shipyard on the lower Clyde - Ferguson Shipbuilders - has just gone bust today.
