Synopsis
Best friends Davy and Ally return from military service in Afghanistan. Both come back in one piece ? unlike some of their colleagues. Their brush with death only intensifies a desire to live life to the fullest, which for Davy involves falling head-over-heels in love with Yvonne, while Ally plans to propose marriage to Davy's sister Liz. Meanwhile, Davy and Liz's folks, Rab and Jean, are set to celebrate their twenty-fifth wedding anniversary. It should be a happy occasion, if only Rab weren't keeping a troubling secret.
