The 1991 adaptation of "The Darling Buds of May" starring Pam Ferris and David Jason was faithful to HE Bates writings. This adaptation seem to have been reworked for the "inclusion" society, but fell short of the mark, making some characters incredulous for the time the program was set. A brave attempt all the same. I imagine Covid wax the reason for the very sparse crowd at the village fete.
