Ballroom Blitz

Synopsis:
You think the Argentine Tango is a can of pop from South America and that the only thing you need for a Salsa is a bag of nachos? Imagine how Sharon Trod feels. Once she won awards for her Botafogo and her whisk; now she's teaching the helpless and the hopeless in order to pay the rent! All she needs is a break ... And that's where Trev comes in. A builder with two left feet and one daft son, Trev is hoping that dancing might help his lad regain lost confidence. But as the glitter ball turns and the competitive couples take to the floor, maybe they'll all get more than they bargained for... With dancing to take your breath away and a collection of unforgettable characters, Ballroom Blitz is an hilarious non-stop comedy with style!

Kicked Into Touch

Synopsis:
May 3, 1980. The clash of the giants, the battle royale, the rugby league game to end all games. Hull v Rovers. The Airlie Birds mix it with the Robins and it's guaranteed to be on Hull of a match, a Humberdinger that will sort out, once and for all, which side of this divided city rules. However, Robyn and Neil won't be there. Instead, as everyone else dons their colours and clambers aboard the coach, the twosome are fighting to keep their relationship together. What will happen when the final whistle blows? And who will come out on top?
