Beamish Boy

Work:: Beamish Boy (S2115524306)

Beamish Boy is a dramatic and touching look at the changing face of the North East, focusing on a single family. For The Bridges, life is a familiar struggle - jobs, work, money, kids in trouble, even though Grandad Jackie is the last surviving member of the famous Jarrow March. But their daughter Elaine is something of a success. She works in property development; enforcing repossessions, acquiring and selling on. There is a very lucrative contract up for grabs, and she just needs to purchase the last in a row of old miners' cottages. Time is running out and this deal could make or break her. But the stubborn ex-miner won't move - and it's Grandad Jackie.
