- James is returning home from London on the train and shares a dining car table with Anne Hepton (Jane Merrow) and her eight year old daughter Charlotte. He thinks nothing of it at the time but a later meeting with Anne will have a strong impact on him.
Meanwhile Aunt Helen is concerned that local brewery owner Dakin is about to retire and sell his shares. She also owns quite a few shares in the company and is concerned that if he sells out to Mercantile Brewers they will shut the brewery down.
(Possible plot spoilers from here)
Having had a disagreeable run in with Merton, the Mercantile’s front man, James decides to organise a syndicate to buy out Dakin’s himself. With £10,000 (around £125,000 these days) still to find he approaches his accountant Taylor who has worked with Hadleigh on several projects previously. However Taylor has just merged his company and his new associate just happens to be Anne Hepton who makes it plain they will not be lending James the ten thousand.

Hadliegh - the ultimate British television drama Super-Smoothie in his day...
My mum's in her 90's. Back in the 1970's, her posher friends all wore hair and clothes like this. Some of them still do😂😊
Ha, yes you're right. A sort of Maggie Thatcher "hair or hat?" look, permed and hairsprayed into submission, with the addition of a gentle tint.
And oddly, at the time, many respectable gents chose to throw caution to the four winds and proudly sprouted mutton chop sideburns and let their hair dangle transgressively beneath the collar. Though Hadleigh would have probably drawn the line at the reckless folly of a droopy moustache. Otherwise, Maxwell would likely have raised a Jeevesian eyebrow of disapproval.
I love 💕 that the British call their moms, mums. And their wives or other women, they call old girls and men old boy. But now that I text thing about it, that’s just exactly what they are. That’s just what they are. They’re simply boys and girls as they grow older. Then they really are old boys 👨🏻🦳and old girls 👵🏻. 😊
@@winonamassingill7895 These little differences in American and English cultural expression add welcome flavour. I noticed recently though that more English are using "mom".
I think that Auntie & Anne dress wonderfully!
Expect that look to be given a freshen-up and back in vogue again anytime soon!
I remember this series very well. Excellent production!
Top class 👍🏴
Merton was Alf Ventriss off Heartbeat. I was racking my old snail brain until the end credits😢 I usually get these things. I think I love Hadleigh though 😊 ❤
Yes, I too to a few minutes to spot who he was.
a ratings winner in its day and yorshire tv produced outstanding dramas 70s and 80s
Aunt Helen is "colourful" in every sense of the word.
Jane Merrow had an interesting website quite recently.
Yes, I saw it a little while back while I was gathering info for these programmes.
Mrs Maxwell is always laid up.
....my question is who; quickly re-arranges Anne`s coiffure ?
Always a production assistant at the ready with cans of industrial-strength Silvikrin!
@@FoogouFilms 🤣
😂That old Hoover and 10 cans of hairspray, perhaps.
The Interior was filmed in a studio.
Indeed. Though there was a brief fashion amongst the leisured classes back in the early '70s for placing painted backdrops outside one's Georgian windows in order to simulate any desired season ;-)
Yes the painted trees are a bit of a give away.
Jane Merrow was seriously hot in this one
This is the 3rd episode I've watched I like it but still don't get it What does Hadleigh do?
From what I can make out, high class wheeling and dealing, helped by being bankrolled with his inheritance and Old Etonian network ;-) We live next door to someone very similar: a big land owner - we aren't by the
way!
And how long did it take you to realize this hegemonic reality?
@thomasceneri867 who are you replying to, me or above?
@@thomasceneri867 "hegemonic"? did you miss the part where he attempts to save a local business from sm mercantile banksters?
He’s a land owner and speculator
Aunt Helen....what a horrible woman 😅
Thank you for sharing: now off you trot.
No she isn’t. Not in the slightest.
This was a crummy movie. It has ended as so many others have. With no clear cut results. It just leaves puzzled 🤨 as to what happened. 😡😡😡😡
I remember this series very well. Excellent production!
