The Tiger's Tail
Synopsis
Identical twins are separated at birth. One, Liam, becomes a successful though over-stretched property developer in the new godless, greedy Ireland; the other, a homeless bum in Leeds. They are the have and the have-not.
In a series of wickedly devious comic episodes, the have-not sets out to steal Liam’s life. He succeeds, but finds nothing but debt and grief. Liam, on the other hand, discovers he is less aggrieved than he thought he might be to find himself relieved of his burdens.
