For years, Greta (Elizabeth Spriggs) has been rewriting stories by romance author Eileen Wyngarde. Then she hears that Eileen is to end her literary career.
A somewhat reluctant career woman, Greta is pleased and looks forward to her job coming to an end and returning home to the kitchen sink.
But her husband, Tom (Geoffrey Palmer) – who works peacefully at home as an illustrator and house-husband – dreads the return of a domesticated Greta and fears he may now have to go out to work and leave the household duties to his wife.
Meanwhile, their son Daniel (Denis Bond) announces he wants to drop out of university and start work, which adds to the family problems.
This standalone ATV play was written by Noel Robinson and directed by Simon Langton.
