The Little Terrace by the Sea

1967: Jenna Duncan's only ambition is to marry the boy she loves and have a little terraced house away from her dull job and her parents' boring life. Ruari Gallacher has other ideas. He wants to be a professional footballer. Ruari is determined to break away from the little seaside town where his father died down the pit and make all his dreams come true. Jenna knows that lots of boys from the north east are good at football and never make it into the professional big time. When he lets her down she becomes involved with the son of the chairman of the local club. Ruari asks her to go with him when he leaves, but it's too late. Will he become the next footballing-star or will he be coming home like so many with his dreams broken? If he gets to the top he may lose everything else which matters. Winners and losers can change places but when you have sacrificed the person who matters most to you can it ever work out?
