Joanne Sykes is lead singer of once-popular 90s indie-rock band The Filthy Dukes. They've been on the road since 1996, slowly but surely managing to play 150-capped venues.

We find the Dukes at their last ever gig, and as the band falls apart so does Joanne; her boyfriend leaves her, and there's little left for her once the group disband. She bumps into an old friend, Sara whilst drowning in her sorrows, and the night ends with Joanne drunkenly applying for university.

University isn't quite what Joanne expected - far less wild partying, and a lot more yoga and kale. Whilst there, she falls in love with the enrolment officer, Pete. It's far from smooth sailing, but will going back to university be the new start she needs; who knows, maybe she'll rediscover her love for music.
