Storyline

The story of a group of people from Northern Ireland, trying to make their way in life in the face of sectarian and political polarization. Chucky is an overweight 30-year-old who has yet to find a purpose for his life, but when he comes up with a business idea, things begin to change in an almost miraculous manner for him. His friend Jake is an unusually sensitive repossession man, and his life too begins to change when he meets Aoirghe, a woman from the other side of the sectarian divide.

A pleasant surprise

I must say that I was pleasantly surprised with this one. So many programmes dealing with this sort of genre are stereotypical and clichéd, but it wasn't the case with "Eureka Street" at all. Definitely a breath of fresh air. Very good acting, great script, not one to be missed.
