The story of a friendship between a Catholic priest and a Communist Mayor. Together they travel from their remote village to Madrid and back exploring their friendship the demands of belief and constancy of faith. This lavish production filmed entirely on location captures the wit warmth and vitality that make the original novel by Graham Greene a unique work of literature.
Versatile singer/organist John Shuttleworth decides to test the popular theory - that the further north you travel the friendlier people will be - by venturing to Britain's most northerly spot the Shetland Isles. Foiled by failing light let down by a flat car battery and buffeted by the constant wind John doggedly pursues his quest; asking everyone he meets the all-important question; ""Is it nice up North?"" Filmed by internationally renowned photographer Martin Parr and co-starring Shetland tour guide Elma Johnson as herself It's Nice Up North is a hilarious spoof documentary; a glorious mix of spurious actuality (caught by Parr's ever-roving camera) and complete nonsense from the mouth of John Shuttleworth.
John Shuttle worth is the character created by musician Graham Fellows who has also on occasion been known as Jilted John best remembered for his massive hit in the seventies Jilted John. John Shuttleworth is a completely different kettle of fish. A fifty something unemployed man living in Sheffield who is fond of DIY and writing songs on his Yamaha keyboard which are inspired by his life. John has also made a film entitled It's Nice Up North which received excellent critical reviews. Southern Softies is the hilarious sequel to It's Nice Up North and follows John's half-hearted quest to see if it's soft down South. The DVD includes unseen deleted scenes and extras including the beloved Savoury promo as seen on Youtube. As with other releases from John Shuttleworth Southern Softies will appeal to the large and dediucated fan base built up by John Shuttleowrth over the last ten years.
