For those of you that haven't seen it, this Mike Leigh film is about a couple (Keith & Candice Marie) who go camping in Dorset in their Minor convertible. Very amusing and makes me think of the National Rally every time I see it. Can't think why
It's on BBC4 at 9pm tonight.

I was a Production Secretary on the Drama team that made it Play For Today @ Pebble Mill - and did a lot of the post production scripts after the final editing.

Well I remember it the first time around and the screech of Candice Marie has stayed with me for ever more.
