'Fame was within reach…until Pearl stole the show. Winging My Way to the Top is about sibling rivalry, fragile egos and a second chance at the big time.

'Straight-talking hard-drinking housewife Beryl, the matriarch, is still very much in love with her chubby, grubby, loyal hubby of nearly 25 years Charlie Cheapside. The youngest sister, Pearl clings tenaciously to her dream of being a star, despite all the undermining.' (Production summary)
