    • Trivia
      Siobhan Redmond shares candid bedroom scenes with actor Paul Bettany, who plays her tortured and much younger lover Rob. "We had to film our most difficult sex scene just two days into shooting," recalls Siobhan. "It was very much a question of, 'Hello, how do you do? I'll take all my clothes off now and jump about on top of you'. "Luckily, Paul is a delightful boy and he was very easy to work with. We arrived at a method of mutual consolation, giggling our way through those scenes. Very late in the proceedings it suddenly occurred to us that it would be a lot easier if we had a glass of champagne, so we did." "It's quite a long scene, with only one cutaway. All the rest is done in one shot, which I really liked. We rehearsed it quite a lot because we wanted the scene to be truthful."

    A fine portrait of unfortunate people hoping for love
    When zapping along the TV-channels, I happened to see the beginning of this series (broadcasted here as one long movie). It caught my attention, I returned to it and ended up watching only this movie. Although the beginning seemed to point to a rather trite and familiar kind of tear-jerking story, in my opinion the movie on the whole gives a fine portrait of unfortunate people hoping for love, and the difficulties and emotions they meet and experience. The British-realistic style of filming was quite fitting; the beauty lies not in the pictures but in what is being portrayed, and the subtle and convincing acting of the leading actors perfectly complements this style. The story, although satisfying, may lack development and surprise, but as a whole the movie is a refreshing interval between all the glib and sophisticated Hollywood productions on TV these days.
