`The Rebel' is a comedy-drama inspired by Andrew Birch's long-running cartoon strip in Oldie Magazine. Actor Simon Callows plays the lead role as 70-year-old Henry Palmer. Spending his retirement in Brighton, Henry is more than meets the eye. The elderly gentleman's vibrant youth lives on just under the surface, a Mod in the 1960s Henry spent more time smashing deckchairs than sitting on them, back then. Recently widowed Henry adjusts to life without his wife with his daughter, Cath and her hopeless husband, Jeremy.
