Riassunto

One day in the life of an English pub?abounds with sadness, banter, and exuberant storytelling, showing all the communal spirit and camaraderie of a pub

Dawn and Frank wake up one wet morning in the flat above their pub, the Old Spring. Today they have to meet the brewery representative, creepy Tim Green, and track down an error in the books?or face the consequences. Dawn has something else on her mind, too: the anniversary of an old tragedy for which she always felt responsible. Frank has a problem of his own?a secret that has ended his sex life with Dawn. Darren the cleaner, meanwhile, is haunted by the ghost of a long-dead landlord. The pub's "chaplain," Father Thomas, tries to rediscover his faith under the skeptical scrutiny of his tormentor, Alan. And, in the local hospital, pub regular Romesh drifts towards death on his magic carpet, while back in the bar, the tattooed man faces up to a life and death crisis of his own.
