John Mills had previously depicted HG Wells' hapless hero Alfred Polly in the 1949 film The History of Mr Polly, but director Gillies MacKinnon remade it for ITV in 2007 to showcase comedian Lee Evans' dramatic skills. It's the turn of the century and gentle Alfred Polly, a natural dreamer since childhood, takes on both a business and a wife.
Quiet and somewhat direction-less, Alfred Polly uses the money he inherits from his father to marry and to set up shop in a small town. His heart is in neither of these enterprises and he eventually resorts to desperate measures to break free. His random wanderings in the countryside lead him to a new opportunity that just might be what he's been looking for all along.
