Totally not what I expected. I watched it expecting to see Julie Walters in a comedic role, parts she plays with excellence. Not in the least bit funny. On the contrary rather a disturbing film. The subject matter would not be portrayed like it was if today's standards were applied. Interesting from the point of view that the setting in the. 1950s came across as very authentic. Wardrobe did a good job with costumes. Also interesting to see a young Amanda Holden and Les Dennis in the cast. Overall it is little more than a made for TV film that covers a disturbing subject matter in a somewhat inappropriate way.
