After relying on the locals, the January Cup is the least of Britt-Marie’s worries when a family need help. Stars Pippa Haywood.
Needing purpose in her life, Britt-Marie has ended up in Borg, a typical Swedish, run-down, small town.
Her part-time job sparks an extraordinary turn of events, beyond anything she might have imagined. But she finds that bringing people into her life also brings problems and she's soon in the midst of a football drama, involved in a family crisis and at the corner of an unexpected love triangle.
The conclusion sees Britt-Marie having to rely on the people of Borg to come through for her and the team.
But suddenly the January Cup is the least of her worries as a family in crisis need her help.
Starring Pippa Haywood.
