Tight-knit communities do not just exist in small towns and villages. Close-knit communities can also be found in urban spaces. You know, places where everyone knows everyone? Places where everyone is like family? Well, that is exactly a kind of community that the British show, ‘Mount Pleasant’ takes a look at. The show is a dramedy that has a loyal group of fans for whom the neighborhood depicted has become like a second home.

‘Mount Pleasant’ revolves around the routine lives of a woman named Lisa and those around her. It is set in Manchester. Some of the other characters include her father, her husband, neighbors, friends, and colleagues. Apart from everyday lives, the series goes deeper, into the conflicts and struggles of each family.

Some of the shows that he has been a part of include ‘Linda Green,’ ‘Steel River Blues,’ ‘The Whistleblowers,’ and ‘The Government Inspector.’ Bobby Ball is also a part of the cast, apart from Pauline Collins, Paula Wilcox, Adrian Bower, and Angela Griffin.
