The Bench

Starring Jason Njoroge as Adi, Hannah Marie Davis as Vicky, Abigail Lawson as Ange, Adam Donaldson as Mike, Zac Anders as Boy, and Dan Howe as Lad.

When you find yourself cast adrift in a strange country, there’s no substitute for finding your soulmate. Even if you’re playing in the Premier League…

Complete strangers, their paths cross on a park bench and in the ensuing week they find that, despite their very different lives, they have more in common than they think.

Vicky is struggling as a single mum and carer for her mother. Adi is a multi-millionaire recent signing with the world at his feet, but his traumatic past has left him unable to make friends—or score goals—until he meets Vicky.

There are many people giving them advice, but in the end, they have to resolve the age-old dilemma of whether to follow their heart or their head.
