A STREET CAT NAMED BOB (12A)
JAMES (Luke Treadaway, right) sleeps rough and earns a few precious coins each day by playing his guitar. Every week he visits support worker Val (Joanne Froggatt), who oversees the methadone programme that is the first step towards defeating his heroin addiction.
Val secures James a flat to aid his recovery and the busker makes two new friends: a free-spirited neighbour called Belle (Ruta Gedmintas), and a stray cat, which he christens Bob.
Bob’s presence at busking gigs inspires generosity from normally resistant passersby and James’ confidence that he can turn his life around grows. However, Val is concerned that James might be anchoring his entire recovery to an animal, who could slink away just as quickly as he arrived.
