    This Australian children’s television series following two Sicilian migrant families in Melbourne was produced by the Australian Broadcasting Commission and adapted from a book of the same name by David Martin.

    While the two families re-kindled an old vendetta, Frank (Alan Wilson) and Francesca (Lenice Reed) were happy in each other’s company.

    The six-part series aired on Sundays at 6.25 pm, beginning on 29 July 1973.
