This week John Reid announced immigration restrictions on the number of Romanian and Bulgarian workers entering the country once those countries have entered the EU in 2007.

Writer and broadcaster Mark Lawson sets his drama, United! in a fictional Northern club where, coincidentally, a Romanian and Bulgarian footballer have just been signed. However, problems soon arise when the East European superstars find personal reasons for refusing to play in the forthcoming Friday and Sunday games.

Cast includes Struan Rodger and Gerard McDermott.
