Description

Hope Street may be just an ordinary terraced street in Leeds, but it's the world to Maggie Fish. When her father returns home from the war, the family looks forward to happier times.

But life has other plans. Maggie's mother dies giving birth to a little boy, leaving Johnnie Fish a bitter widower struggling with grief and guilt. In contrast, Maggie can do no wrong in her father's eyes, and he pushes her forward to pursue her passion for singing at the local working men's club.

With the help of Charlie Chipperfield, a talented piano-player, a new vaudeville act - Fish and Chipperfield - is born. As they take the stage, Maggie must navigate the challenges of show-business and confront the uncertainty of her future.
