with Andrew Robertson as Kenny Patterson, Roddy McMillan as Willie Patterson,

A story about growing up, settling old scores, falling in love and the effect of surroundings on behaviour
Patterson O.K. is set in Glasgow where producer Pharic Maclaren makes the same dramatic use of his surroundings as he did in Edinburgh for Scobie in September and on the Isle of Arran for The Prior Commitment.
About the only non-Scottish element in the production is the author, Welshman Ray Jenkins
