Fisherman’s Friends
Danny (Mays), a hardened London music executive, heads to the Cornwall coast for his colleague’s bachelor party. During a day out, the friends come across a group of singing fishermen, a sight so hilarious to Danny’s elitist boss, Troy (Clarke), that he tells Danny to sign the fishermen to a prank record deal. Danny finds himself taken aback by the talent and pure intentions of the fishermen he’s meant to bamboozle. The band’s leaders, Jim (Purefoy), Jago (Hayman), Leadville (Johns) and Rowan (Swainsbury), begin to remind Danny of the purity with which he viewed the music industry at the beginning of his career and allow him to consider the importance of friendship, love and a fulfilled life beyond the fame, career and fortune he’s so stubbornly been prioritizing.
