Synopsis: | Flannery's eponymous hero is loosely based on the 50s slum landlord, Peter Rachman; and we watch with astonishment as he reinvents himself against the the shifting landscape of post-war Britain. Having survived Auschwitz, he becomes a thriving racketeer. But, after suffering apparent death in a Hampstead pond, Flannery's Singer is miraculously resurrected. For 20 years he becomes a soup-kitchen saint tending the homeless but is then appropriated by Thatcherite businessmen who want to use his talents to build tower blocks for the dispossessed.
