Solo!
Synopsis
But to sell the house, Barney needs money to fix it up. So with help from local musician Paloma (and despite her ex-boyfriend’s interference), he sets about reforming the village band, aiming to win some prize money in an upcoming competition.
However, when he stands in to play a trumpet solo at the funeral of the previous bandleader, his performance style inadvertently reveals that he is his father’s son – since their playing styles are exactly the same.
How will the village react? And what will Paloma do now?
