About This Movie

That Day We Sang is a poignant exploration of nostalgia and second chances, all set against the backdrop of Manchester. The film, a TV adaptation of Victoria Wood's musical, beautifully intertwines the lives of Tubby and Enid, two middle-aged individuals who find themselves drawn back to their childhood choir. The atmosphere is rich with the echoes of past melodies, and the pacing allows for a slow build, letting memories wash over the characters—and us. Performances are heartfelt, capturing the loneliness and yearning for connection that many can relate to.
