 Craig is a rough kid in Blackpool, picking up cash as a bare-knuckle club fighter; he s also having a hard time accepting that he s gay. Outside a dance club, he meets Matt, a Londoner working for Kelvin, a shady but enterprising music producer. Matt s flatmate is a client, singer Paula Poptart, who s Matt s good friend but also insecure and needy as a performer. Craig comes down to London to join Matt, but this presents problems for Matt, who s had lots of blokes but never fallen in love. Matt s feelings, Kelvin s demands, Matt s dream to run a rock club, Paula s snits and jealousy, and Craig s lack of job skills combine to put Craig and Matt s relationship in jeopardy.
