Jimmy Rabbitte, just a tick out of school, gets a brilliant idea: to put a soul band together in Barrytown, his slum home in north Dublin. First he needs musicians and singers: things slowly start to click when he finds three fine-voiced females virtually in his back yard, a lead singer (Deco) at a wedding, and, responding to his ad, an aging trumpet player, Joey "The Lips" Fagan.

Sean Hughes: Penguins
Sean Hughes
Sean takes us back to his Dublin upbringing and the, at times, utter awkwardness of teenage life - weaving in his family, his school days and the business of friendship and tying it all in to the present. It's brilliant and multi-layered and it really is up there with his Perrier award winning show 'A One Night Stand'
