First viewed : Autumn 1989
This has surprised me a little; I'd have placed it a couple of years later. I saw this in snatches at The Red Lion while waiting for the quiz to start or to get a lift to an away fixture on a Sunday evening.
The four part melodrama on BBC One starred Diana Rigg, now in character parts, as an overbearing mother so unhinged by her husband's desertion that her son and his wife have to hide the fact that they're still in touch with him from her. Another sixties survivor, David McCallum, played the husband. It eventually ends in murder.
