Happy-Go-Lucky

Happy-Go-Lucky

Drama Perennially perky primary school teacher Poppy refuses to let life get her down, rising above the misery and cynicism of the capital and its weary inhabitants. Poppy meets her match in misanthropic driving instructor Scott, whose quick temper and boundless pessimism are in stark contrast to her cheery disposition. Scott voices his disdain for his pupil's carefree attitude ("You can make jokes driving, Poppy, but you will crash and you will die!") but she refuses to be worn down by his constant sniping. Their relationship takes an unexpected detour when Poppy begins dating a handsome social worker, and Scott grows increasingly jealous of the new man in his student's life.
