Synopsis
Fred Archer, the master of the rural tale, has gathered together a fine collection of Worcestershire country folk. From the alluring barmaid Amy Lights - 'a rural Venus' - to the Reverend Vernon, who rides a tricycle 'religiously' and excels at funerals, all the characters embody earthy, warm and ruddy humour. Central to the tale is Sacco, a builder's apprentice, who seduces the local girls and startles older folk with his much-prized motorbike. With a witty remark and a quick answer to all of life's perplexing questions, Sacco is a likeable scoundrel. He is indeed a true 'lad' of Evesham Vale.You May Also Be Interested In...
