Plum on ABC and ABC iview S1E2 – We open on a flashback to Plum (Brendan Cowell), all dressed up with young wife Renee (Asher Keddie), receiving his Australian Captaincy. But his dad rolls up drunk, and the ceremony is tainted for the footy hero.
Late 2018 and it’s the week of his son Gavin’s (Vincent Miller) final. Renee insists Plum tell his girlfriend Charmayne (María Dupláa), and their son Gavin about the incident. Renee is still officially Plum’s next of kin, so was there to collect him from the airport.
At the grand final Plum can’t take it, the game that gave him everything is suddenly too brutal, and he has to go. Plum drinks beer with a dead poet and lets his son down.
