In 1993, 16-year-old Johanna Morrigan lives on a council estate in Wolverhampton with her aspiring rock star father Pat, exhausted mother Angie, brothers Krissi and Lupin, and two infant twins.

A poem she wrote is selected for a televised competition, but she is overcome with nerves and humiliates herself on national television.
