It's Liverpool, 1978. The World Cup is on and Father Aherne, who likes a bet, is on a winning streak. It's as if he's getting help from above.
His luck doesn't stretch to accommodation as he finds himself without a roof over his head. His prayers are quickly answered when Marion, one of his parishioners, is delighted to offer him her spare room. Terry, her non-believing husband, is not so keen.
Over the summer, the two men bond when the beautiful game seems to be going in their favour but will they triumph when the final whistle blows?
Join us for Gerry Linford's brand new comedy about, family, friendship and having a flutter that proves it's really the odds that move in mysterious ways!
Starring Les Dennis & Andrew Schofield
Written by Gerry Linford
Directed by Bob Eaton
