A Fitting Tribute

Synopsis

Niall, a naive and unsuccessful local news reporter, is under pressure to get results on a 'death-knock' from hardened-pro reporter, Tammy. He gets more than he bargains for when Mrs Wright - the grieving mother of a boy killed in a road traffic accident - appears to mistake him for somebody else.
