PARAS OVER THE BARRAS
Paras over the Barras
A Comedy Play by
James Barclay
Here they were again.... by POPULAR DEMAND. Glasgow's Big Heart took Wullie McSorley and his family to itself. Many identified with wartime Glasgow.... the rationing, the blackout and camaraderie of living up a close.
They're back - by popular demand!
`Happy landings' was Paras Over The Barras, Part Three.  So many folk were disappointed that man-hungry Ina McLatchie hadn't captured the 'affections' of grumpy Wullie McSorley. He had almost proposed one night during an air raid but nothing came of it. Clippie Rita and her boyfriend, Rasputin Plunket, had wed and Big Sammy, Annie's `man', had escaped from a Japanese prison camp but is expected to be dropped over occupied France once again... this time wearing parachute! Life's going on in Glasgow's Wartime Calton district and Ina McLatchie is not a girl to give up... especially when she gets an encouraging message from beyond the grave.
Fingers McGeachie, the likeable rogue, is still up to his nefarious activities. And how do you keep in business when your petrol ration has run out and you have `deliveries' to make? That's the problem facing undertaker Curdy McVey!
