Young Lennie Godber is sent to Slade Prison for breaking and entering. He is lucky enough to share cell with Norman Fletcher, veteran and father-figure, who can show him the ropes.
Small grocer’s shop on the corner of the street like many others in Yorkshire. The stingy owner, Arkwright, who sees costs everywhere, especially in his nephew Granville, who delivers the orders and demands to eat every day!
When Fletcher gets out of the prison he makes the decision to go straight from that point in life. He moves in with his daughter and tries to keep low profile, but each day he trips on the things from his past.
