Season 1:
Ageing rock 'n' roll band The Majestics are about to hit the big time after 25 years of footslogging around small-scale Scottish venues.
The band are put out when they learn they are not top of the bill. Vince announces that his girlfriend is pregnant, which displeases his wife.
The BBC is making a documentary on the death of Big Jazz, and Danny decides to get involved. The others resent the amount of attention that he is getting.
A blast from the past puts the wind up the Majestics drummer when he and Danny ride the Radio Buckie airwaves, Noreen throws in the towel and it is left to Suzi to blow up in a storm. Is this a dagger I see before me?
The Majestics attempt to make a new record. Danny finds out the truth about Suzie's husband.
The Glasgow Pavilion, climax of the Silver Jubilee Tour. But all is not well. Danny gets in the ring with Suzi, there's more about the TV show and Diver develops a taste for vodka.
