Tony Teardrop
by Esther Wilson

Gritty and sometimes humorous drama inspired by true stories taken from the homeless people of Manchester. The care of children is at the heart of this second drama about homeless couple Roz and Tony, who have been out of town but now they're back. Roz is a Methadone addict with four adult children. Her eldest daughter Carly has fallen out with Roz, and after having been made redundant is facing her worst fear; being homeless with her own young children. Tony Teardrop, is a father of two boys who are living with foster carers. He's hopeful of starting contact with them again. This is a sequel to the Friday Drama (Friday 31st January slot at 21.00).
