Single mother Dee Purnell (Anna Friel) would do anything for her two boys. Six months ago she moved into the street in a bid to move Jack and Luke into St Peter's School from rough Denton Green where Jack is being bullied so badly that he wets the bed. Moving into the school's catchment area has meant taking on a bigger mortgage and to make ends meet, Dee works weekends at a sauna in Bolton in addition to her weekday job at a DIY store. Working as a prostitute in the sauna is only for another six months; just until she's cleared the mortgage arrears and the boys are in St Peter's. But she gets more than she bargained for when she falls for plumber Mark (Daniel Mays), as their future happiness comes under threat when she is introduced to his father, and former client, Joe (David Bradley).
