Leaving On A Jet Plane

Episode 4 of 4

Richie Webb stars as Nigel Penny, a cocktail pianist whose entrepreneurial brother books him for gigs he doesn’t need. This time, at a hastily arranged funeral for a friend.

Richie Webb stars as performance-shy cocktail pianist Nigel Penny.

Nigel Penny’s attempts to live his life like his music, in the background, are constantly thwarted by his entrepreneurial half-brother Pav (Paul G Raymond) who is desperate to find gigs for Nigel and his musical partner, wannabe singer Rachel (Jess Robinson).

As Nigel tries to pluck up what little courage he has to tell Rachel how he feels, events overtake him. Marco’s dodgy meat-dealing on the dark web has gone awry and Stan suspiciously steps in to help by suggesting an elaborate ruse. Plans for a hastily arranged funeral are put into action and Pav is only too happy to help, though he also seems to be hiding something. Nigel is carried along for the ride, buoyed only by his certainty of a happy ending for him and Rachel. He’s fifty percent right.
