When twelve veteran musicians are devastated by their exclusion from a breakaway orchestra, TV film composer Frank Morrison sets out to repair the damage and give them a new sense of purpose by forming a retro band. After a hesitant start, they are soon reproducing the wonderful romantic sounds of the 1930s and before long, dedication and soaring enthusiasm lead to a string of successful engagements. Meanwhile, Frank's personal life becomes increasingly complex with the involvement of the athletic and appealing Regional Produce Candidate and the enigmatic Sarah. His professional life is no less hectic: he is soon working flat out with an impossible workload and, in his exhausted state, he still has to prepare the band for a vital recording session. Ray Hobbs has spent half a lifetime as a performer, arranger and teacher. The popular music of the 1930s has been his lifelong passion. He is a native of the West Riding and studied music in Huddersfield and London, but now lives in Kent with his wife Sheila and their two dogs.
