Married 2 Malcolm

Synopsis

For nine years, taxi driver Malcolm has been happily married to two women, Natalie and Norma. Dividing his time between taxi shifts and two wives keeps Malcolm a very busy man!





One day Noddy Holder, pop singer, comes to town - the other guy whom both wives adore. By chance Natalie, a great costume designer, gets to design Noddy's stage outfit and Norma, a superb karaoke singer, gets to perform with Noddy on the big day.





It seems Malcolm's little marital secret is about to be revealed. Each wife wants Malcolm to escort her to the show.





Malcolm tries to avoid his fate, but every plan fails. In desperation he asks crazy Sam Tex for help. Sam's plan is to blow up the theatre before the event so there is no venue.





In his haste to stop the bomb, Malcolm crashes his taxi.





Escaping from hospital he rushes to the concert. Natalie and Norma both grab him - just as the bomb goes off. Everyone escapes - including Malcolm.





Malcolm is chased by the police - and also by his two very angry wives. They close in at the Blackpool Tower. There is only one way out - up he goes.





Where will it end?

Gilbert Watikins as Robbie (younger) In my Beginning Is My End

Director: Ben O'Connor

Year: 2026

Robbie exists on the margins of society. He lives alone on a narrow boat in rural England with little means. He has found solace in isolation and a humble life. Unexpectedly he is contacted with the unwanted news of his estranged father’s death. This drags up emotions from the past that quickly become too much to bear… And so, the story begins… A journey back into his past. A journey on a motorcycle to find his mother. He drives, alone, through desolate landscapes, barren and mountainous, into the depths of his mind. A dream world where Robbie is forced to confront his past. Two stories emerge; memories from his childhood recurrently appear, fracturing the present where ex-lovers who have shaped his life confront him in surreal encounters. With time the two stories collide, past and present become one. The road leads in one direction, back to his childhood home and ultimately, his first and now final love; his mother. For where he began, he will now end and know himself for the first time.

Yellow Bucket - Connor (Harry Baxendale) watches TV Yellow Bucket

Director: Simon Brooke

Year: 2025

Boyfriends Connor, Silas, and Connor’s dad Rob arrive home. Connor and Silas show affection. Rob drops his yellow work bucket in the kitchen. Little brother Max sits up for dinner while mum, Jan, plans for his sixth birthday. They watch the evening news announcing a scientific discovery; if a boy sees yellow while hearing a woman sing on his sixth birthday, he will grow up gay. The notion of this quotidian trigger creates a tense silence. Connor, anxious, realises his parents can choose whether Max grows up gay. The next day, Max chooses colours for his party, ignoring yellow. Connor sees the yellow bucket in the kitchen has been replaced with a blue one. That night, Connor wakes Max to ask if anyone told him what colours to pick. Max insists he chose his favourites. Before the party, Jan fears she is losing her voice. Rob takes Connor to the pub and reassures him the yellow bucket broke, and that he and Jan are proud Connor is gay. At the party, Connor withdraws to his room. Jan follows and finds he has hidden every yellow object in the house. Upset, they gently return to the celebration leaving the objects.
