I'd only seen this before as a backdrop movie On U Tube Video of The Mavericks singing "Back in your arms again" It was a really good Plot going back to when 'Lovers' first Met 20 yrs prev & subsequent events afterwards! NO Spoilers but well worth watching! VP
Somehow I Managed to `Miss' this `Film'' when it was First `Commissioned by BBC Drama (Scotland) due to NOT being `Networked'!?
& I'm so Glad that `Paradiso' had Wisdom/foresight to include this Wonderful Production in it's Collection of television Drama's
ALL Character's WERE Believable due to `Casting' & Inspirational Storyline with mixture of `Pathos' & Sardonic Humour! In particular The Sorting Office Manager (Played by Robert Daws) was Reprise' of `John Barry!` aka' Mr Brittas! All in All A `Home Grown Gem' from British Film industry! May I recommend another `British Film of Similar `Genre' (also available on this Site) entitled "In Love with Alma Cogan" Set in Norfolk (Cromer) with Similar Cast Roger Lloyd Pack/Gwyneth Strong Keith Barron etc.,! `Vic' P
just finished Watching first Series of `The Brothers' It's Just as I remembered including the Sets/Décor reflecting the `Genre' of it's Time in the Early 70's! NO PC's/Calculator's to work Out Accounts! just Concometers (Adding Machines!?) & REAL Telephones with Dials /receivers Looking forward to Reviewing Rest of Series (I Still think of Glyn Owen aka Edward Hammond) as `Jack Rolfe' in Gerald Glaisters creation of `Howard's Way some 10 year's Later!
ALL believable Characters of their Time including `Bill' (The Foreman Driver)
