Leslie Purdon lives & breathes trucking"
- " Truck & Driver". Its the 1970s. Trucker Dennis Richardson (Rich) revels in the laughs & camaraderie of his life on the road. He sets up a transport company North Kent with two pals. Benny is the one with the short fuse; Rich tries to calm him down
- when hes not winding him up. The irrepressible Chuckles has his own way of dealing with tachographs & then theres the indispensable Jean the rock on which they rest. The determined team go through humorous & sometimes extreme exploits as they strive to stay afloat. They run legal when they can & cut corners when necessary gambling on the new Scandinavian trucks that are changing the industry. They are cheated out of their earnings
- but still come up smiling."
