| Summary: | Nick Cameron is an active young Scottish plasterer whose social life revolves around football and his mates. Meeting and falling in love with Karen, a trainee hotel manager, is the icing on the cake. But just as they move in together, Nick's idyllic life is shattered by multiple sclerosis. As his body gradually deteriorates, he experiences a wide sweep of jagged emotions. Ignoring her friend's advice to leave him, Karen does her best to help him come to terms with his illness. Authentic and unsentimental, Go Now is a poignant love story, powerful drama and razor-sharp comedy, partly based on co-writer Paul Powell's personal experiences of MS. |
