PLOT

Connie is a 1985 British television drama created and written by Ron Hutchinson as a dry commentary on 1980s Thatcherite values. Set in the East Midlands garment industry, the titular character returns to the United Kingdom from Greece after eight years in self-imposed exile. She's determined to claw back control of her chain of high-street clothes shops now controlled by her stepsister, and also get her foot back into the House of Bea, a family-owned garment factory run by her father and stepmother, which is now losing money.

Connie return from exile shakes her family and sends shockwaves through the industry. Nudging forty but as gusty as ever, Connie still looks good and is not above pulling a chauffeur-driven limousine - complete with attractive businessman - at the airport. The pin-striped Jamieson is soon caught up in the crossfire.
