by Gareth Jones

with Hazel O'Connor as Via
and Derek Thompson as Bruce Curran, Malcolm Frederick as Danny Hopkins, Cheryl Maiker as Yvonne Sharpe, Tony Carney as Neil Curran

Viv Sharpe hurtles down the motorway, kids in tow, towards the Bristol she used to call home. Not only has Bristol changed, but Viv finds no one wants to know her and there's nowhere to go. Is this the start of Viv the vagrant? Or can she keep fighting back?
