The Road

The Little Ladies tour pubs, clubs and dive bars of provincial Britain. The band is still raw and often fails to live up to its adopted image of no-nonsense rockers. Despite this, the girls realise that playing in front of an audience gives them an incredible buzz, which makes all the travelling and lack of money worthwhile. It's not all plain sailing, as in some venues they receive a very hostile reception. Meanwhile, Anna has a brief affair with Derek; Q meets Nigel, a freelance rock journalist; and Dee has an admirer in the form of Dave, an audience member who becomes a sort of groupie.
