A group of social outcasts have been forced to move into a derelict row of terraced houses by the local authority. From the initial stages of conflict between the new neighbours, a common bond is formed, leading ultimately to their unification in turning the decrepit properties and surrounding wasteland, into Scotland's foremost holiday resort. The process demands ingenuity, subterfuge and the odd flash of pure genius - all of which are employed to conceal the project from the authority, police and supercilious residents from the pretentious neighbouring council estate.
