Good Arrows

Synopsis

Darts 'legend' Andy 'The Arrows' Samson and his voluptuous wife, Big Sheila, are the subject of a fly on the wall documentary that unintentionally reveals a wardrobe full of skeletons. After suffering an heart attack, Andy loses his throwing skills and he is faced with some stark home truths. Andy's ex-best friend and mentor, Alwyn, thinks he has the solution to Andy's dilemma. Big Sheila, however, is piling the hurt on, and it's going to take a miracle to get Andy back at the oche.
