He walks with a stick and rides an electric scooter. He has lived a full life, but has no intention of going gently into the night – especially when there’s so much to be angry about. And now because of his failing health, he is forced to move in with his daughter Angela and her sensitive boyfriend Fin, to receive extra care. Game on!
