Leeford Village - tales of ordinary and not so ordinary village folk.

Co-written by Jon Markes and Michael Braccia. 
Serialised fortnightly in the Express and Star online newspaper. 
​

In Leeford Village, we get to know (and maybe even love!) many different characters who are simply living their day-to-day lives in a small village. They don’t always get it right but (generally), their intentions are honourable, and they find a way of entertaining us along the way!

We meet Vera Cleeve, gnome-fanatic; Stephen and Gary, the local cops, never knowingly efficient; Cody and Agnes who own the local fish and chip shop and are way past the seven-year itch; overly officious parish council leader and businessman, Frank Watson, who seems to irritate everyone. Then there is Ethel, who hears the gossip in her coffee shop; sisters Linda and Sherry, apparently vying for the amour of market trader and launderette manager, Allen Gomez. And then there is the band, trying to put a set together for the inaugural Leeford Village fête, without falling apart.
