Each of them needs to return regularly to Rathdoon: Nancy Morris, a real ‘Miss Mouse’, is known for her meanness and has to escape her flatmate’s carping; Dee Burke is engrossed in her affair; Kev Kennedy has a side to his character hidden even from his family; Celis Ryan has to face her mother making a drunken exhibition of herself - and Tom has his reasons.
