A story of passion and ambition set in the bingo halls of Britain, as contestants vie for the accolade of National Bingo Caller of the Year, plus a holiday in Las Vegas. Who will emerge victorious? Vivianne Howard's observational documentary follows three hopeful callers at different stages of the bingo calling game. There's Morecambe's highly-decorated living legend, Patrick Bowler - "the Des Lynham of bingo callers" - a twenty year veteran of the bingo business, who has come out of retirement for one more contest. There's Wigan's rookie wild card Bernard McGuinness, who wants to win the prize money so he can marry his fiancee in Las Vegas. Then there's Wood Green's finest, the all singing, all dancing Ricky Denton.
