A Strange Jig

Synopsis

My Mum's a Morris dancing vicar. Her Morris dancing friends are a diverse bunch, an opera singer, a long distance lorry driver and an engineer, united by this odd English tradition. By day they hold down responsible jobs, by night they dress in eccentric disguise and dance a strange jig.
