Red, White & Cue
Polly Meek
Planet Rugby has saved cynical Danny Reed from the legacy of a broken childhood, and a life that taught him to live without. After years of single-minded training, he makes his overdue debut to a live-televised, capacity crowd. Facing hidden demons and brutal playing conditions, the game marks a significant milestone, but it is the impact of meeting Cassie that lingers.
In need of respite from her high-pressured job, Cassie grasps the offer to produce and film a sports-life docuseries - despite its subject and location. To achieve success, she must navigate her history with the player who stole her heart.
Now valued by Club and community alike, Danny’s fearless playing skills, and ambition to stake a claim on an England Rugby shirt, are tested when Cassie reappears. As filming of training, home and away matches take place, Cassie and Danny enter each other’s world. While trust, and undeniable chemistry steer them through challenges, a memorable Christmas ball declares Danny as Cassie’s last line of defence. When a series of shock revelations are made, their relationship is tested and each must ask themselves, what matters most, when you have something to lose?
