In this one, it's 1885 and ex-smuggler Freddie Musgrave (Colin Buchanan) is running an honest business — until a figure from his past comes calling. Well, that's what figures from your past do. But in a more contemporary twist, Freddie has also got to contend with his friend Maggie and her daughter Belle (Hannah Yelland).
