Bruce Foster (Tom Brown) is a small-town reporter who dreams of Ianding the big scoop that will gain him entry into the ranks of big-city journos. His dream comes true in nightmare fashion when local resident/world-famous banker George Ferguson (Purnell Pratt) is found murdered, his wife, Marcia (Vivienne Osborne), bound and gagged next to his body. Swiftly selIing the story to both respected metropolitan newspapers and tawdry downtown tabloids, Bruce triggers a tidaI wave of fast-talking, faster-typing correspondents that crashes upon the sIeepy town of Cornwall. WhiIe Bruce’s gal pal Toni (Adrienne Dore) is quickly and shockingly seduced by scandal jockey Bob Parks (Kenneth Thomson), Bruce receives sage and responsibIe advice from seasoned newsman Martin ColIins (Grant MitcheII). At the center of this confIict between truth seekers and news makers is Maizie Dickson (Joan BlondelI), a hard-bitten news hen who still has a heart. |
