Turf Wars

Two lovers find their romance shattered when they find themselves on the opposite sides of a new border between two countries. Starring Nigel Planer, Joseph Kloska and Leah Brotherhead.

Nigel Planer stars in Kieran Lynn's comedy in which a border guard draws a tape line through a park, dividing it into two halves in a newly divided country. But the line now separates two young lovers.

Arthur and Olivia take the sun in their local park on a beautiful summer's day. Olivia is reading a newspaper article on their country's new-found independence. It seems that no one knows quite what the terms are for the secession. Arthur couldn't care less. He's apolitical and is just enjoying watching the ducks.

Suddenly a soldier, Reiver, arrives, dragging a tape across the ground, marking out the new border. He barges between the two young lovers. Now one is on one side of the new border, and one on the other.

Arthur's attempt to cross is met with a stun-gun jolt from the guard, who has as little understanding of the new ground rules as the couple. He just knows he has been trained to be suspicious of everyone who isn't from this country, which now includes Arthur.

The drama stars Joseph Kloska as Arthur, Leah Brotherhead as Olivia and Nigel Planer as Reiver.
