Desperately Seeking Bradley
As the Tour de France starts in Yorkshire, playwright Georgia Fitch sets her story against the backdrop of the first stage in Harrogate.
Widow Jeanie hasn't been out and enjoyed herself since her husband died two years ago, but now the Tour de France has come to Yorkshire for the first time and she is determined to get out there and start enjoying the action. When she meets a Bradley Wiggins look-alike it seems that her love-life may take a turn for the better. But first of all Jeannie has to learn to take a few risks in this short romantic comedy with a twist.
