ITV TV movie with Ken Stott as Mike, a wino who seeks redemption with Annie, a Salvation Army worker. After being hit by a bus, he turns up at her rehab facility much to the annoyance of her Army fiancee Nigel played by perennial loser Kevin Whately (Inspector Morse). Mike eventually sobers up and decides the only way to earn Annie's love is to join the Army with her. Will she succumb to his charms or stick with Nigel? I have to say though, as a Christmas-oriented special, this has the most cynical ending I've ever witnessed in my life. It's like killing Jimmy Stewart halfway through "It's a Wonderful Life." I'm not knocking it, mind you, but talk about souring the holiday cheer. You'd never see anything remotely like this on American TV at Christmastime in a million years.
