On a Saturday shopping trip in Manchester's city centre, Colin (Robson Green) and Howie (Mark Benton) get into a row over a parking space with an aggressive stranger. They are forced to back off (he's much bigger than them), and with the incident soon forgotten, they sneak off to the pub whilst their wives Jackie (Nicola Stephenson) and Pauline (Sian Reeves) are otherwise engaged. But when the mysterious stranger is gunned down in front of their eyes, the boys become the only witnesses to a vicious gangland execution, and before they have a chance to argue about whose fault it is they are informed that their own lives are in danger and they will have to join the Witness Protection Programme - leaving behind everything they know and starting new lives with their families in London.
