BBC One - Jimmy McGovern's Moving On, Series 7, Scratch

A scratch down the side of John's car leads to firings, fights and a Mexican stand-off.

Drama. John has always hated confrontation. When a scratch appears down the side of his car, it leads to firings and fights, concrete mixers and a Mexican stand-off.

John has always hated confrontation. When the builders at the bottom of his road need to work on the Sunday his wife Sarah had asked her parents round for lunch, she asks him to have a word and it's his worst nightmare. Inevitably, he mismanages the situation. When he walks back to his house and sees a scratch down the side of his car, he knows it must be the skip driver he saw earlier. But he swallows his complaint and heads back inside. 

He didn't count on his confrontational brother Darren seeing the scratch and going on the warpath. As Darren says all the things John is too scared to say, John stands by his side, secretly enjoying every moment, following his brother's lead as ever. That is until things begin to escalate far quicker than John could have ever imagined. What started as a scratch leads to firings and fights, concrete mixers and a Mexican stand-off.
