Song: About You Now by Sugababes
Title: Cockles and Mussels
I know everything changes
All the cities and faces
But I know how I feel about you
Dublin, 1990. Molly O’Dowda (Catriona Balfe) lives with her sister Emmy (Louisa Harland) and their mother Mary (Meg Ryan). She’s got a good job writing at The Herald, she spends most of her free time trying to chase men away from Emmy or caring for her aging mother, and she never, ever thinks about the handsome Englishman whose heart she broke in 1970. Until one day he waltzes back into her newsroom. Ted Pring (Tom Burke) has never forgotten Molly, or the proposal she rejected. Ted has become an award winning photojournalist, and he’s back in Dublin to show Molly what she missed out on. Molly, meanwhile, is desperate to keep a devastating secret from Ted, even if it means breaking his heart again. As her mother grows sicker and Emmy’s behaviour grows wilder, Molly and Ted are forced to confront the consequences of their choices.
