A quirky story of disc jockeys and ice cream wars
Sunday 31 July (17.00)
Running time: 1h40m
Bill Forsyth followed up the classic Local Hero with this quirky story of disc jockeys and ice cream wars. A few days before Christmas, radio host Alan Bird (Bill Paterson) witnesses an ice cream van being attacked and destroyed. When he delves deeper into the incident, he discovers a long-standing clash between two Italian families over ice cream-selling territory in Glasgow. Packed with Forsyth’s typical charm and wit, Comfort & Joy offers a uniquely Glaswegian perspective on life.
