Storyline
The show revolves around Oldham-based Harry Wade - played by David Threlfall in the new cast - who is one of the best hangmen in the country. After the UK abolishes hanging as a method of punishment, Harry is forced to think about what else he could do with his life. He’s never far from a bottle of alcohol, mainly because he runs a pub with his wife Alice, and his daughter Shirley, fifteen. Their joint is frequented by people who debate capital punishment and its merits and demerits. Where does Harry stand on the issue? Hanging people to death was his life’s profession. And he was good at it - second best in the land.A mysterious stranger enters the pub and forces him to rethink his values by going after something dear to Harry. Will new circumstances lead him back to his old ways?Also involved is an annoying cub reporter writing a story about the last day of capital punishment.
