I always wonder if the actors who play the part of being inebriated are completely acting, or are slightly inebriated in actuality. 🙂

This programme is deplorable.was then,and worse now.utter nonsense

An incestuous paedophile who poured whisky down a child's throat, and asked him what colour of underpants he was wearing. (The writer was later convicted of child sexual abuse.) Just awful, BBC.

Disgusting.

Awful. Like 2 dramas, cobbled together. The scenes about the company are dire, and derivative, and the acting is dreadful, in those scenes. (But thank you for uploading, of course.)

Shocking.

'Alick Rowe' was convicted of child sexual abuse. Google it. BBC page missing.

Honestly, the day these dudes figure out how to have sons without the need for women🙄

Why'd the dad have to come and mess things up, nobody's keeping him from the boy so why create animosity?

The boy is called Neil Jeffrey and he was head chorister at Canterbury cathedral at the time. My brother was deputy head chorister at Canterbury at the same time as Neil.❤

Absolutely brilliant series enjoyed every minute of it. Any more similar to this. Once again brilliant.

I can remember when this was on TV the local Hereford press made a big thing about it, I can remember everyone at 6 form the next day talking about the Jag driving along the foot path on the top of the old castle ramparts, totally not allowed. 🙂

The boy is a piece of work.

Quite sad, but very realistic and moving. Thanks for uploading!

Boring

This is incredibly powerful stuff at 35:00. I think that Alick Rowe was trying to sort out his crisis of faith with this.

Richard Davison showed the same skills set as Jimmy Savile is thought to have had: the ability to do wrong without leavin the trail of evidence whilst building up the trust of powerful individuals.

Very dark. Can’t see faces

I ask myself that daily considering the intensity of abuse I got from him in plain view of all. Slow and malicious and using his bbc writer status as a cover i hope the world didn’t choose to look away and that he was just too good at blinding them. Thank you for your compassion and loving energy

This dude was the evil doctor in Hellraiser 2.

But if you could leave the episodes on line and add more if you have any, they really do tell the story of Alick and I , that was there purpose. They help me owatching these, understanding the man, Alick Rowe, who hid behind the truth with this series.

Alick Rowe, the writer of this series was inspired by me and my young teen innocence to write this series for the BBC. He chose the title of the series after joking that it is that upfront of a title, nobody will suspect his relationship with me. While he wrote this in his office, I lay tied to his bed knacked. He abused me daily for years, serious abuse. Even the paper boy at the start was inspired by me, I remember he joked about including this paperboy scene, that this was my virtual part. Later after he showed me off, all 14 years old of me, to his friends from the BBC in a restaurant one evening, I was given a walk on part in one episode. I was his paperboy and that's how he lured me into his apartment. I still suffer today from all the abuse, the drugs and torment he plied on me.

puffy film

Couple of Meadow End regulars there.

So proud To see my family’s farm here

He loved his son truly, like my old man but he was a drinker as well..

28.13 onwards at the table over the offer was brilliant..

My money was on Mark.

I'll freely admit that the reason this caught my eye in the first place was the fact that Cheryl Campbell was involved. I adore her. Having said that, I'm so glad I stayed for all six installments. Really well done.

that Eric makes my skin crawl

Brilliant drama, brilliantly scted. A joy to watch 😊

What an absolute load of rubbish.

A really compelling story with perfect actors!! So glad to have seen all episodes.

I left England in 1983 to move to the US and I’ve never seen this. It is the UK I remember even though I didn’t go to public school. It’s the first time I’ve seen Kenneth Cranham that young. An expat watching in Florida

Excellent series…thanks for it!

Love it! The houses look similar to Halifax NS Canada. I was there for a visit.

I qent to College from Kentucky to Grantham at Harlaxton College. Best days of my life. 1979-81

It seems staged, not 1986. And why the racquet balls? Doesn't fit. I won't watch more of it.

That was great, thank you. And no VHS glitches or anything!

All the talk about the age gap ?? There’s only a year between the two guys and she’s only 5/6 years younger than them

Thank you for introducing this to me..a drama of the highest calibre, well written,well casted, well acted and will withstand several viewings to understand different nuances that were overlooked before. At the beginning I really found the father so repulsive he was almost cartoonish and it was hard to see how he could ever have been married to the wife. But as everyone came under pressure I quickly realised how much I disliked her. Yes,she was a doting mother,but the sort who can make monsters; failing to admit her son's adolescence,his stealing and that having sent him to a cathedral school that of course he would develop the values they teach that she thought he could just turn off now she's had what she wanted from their school. And the father as he descends into the heavy end of his drinking,his bullying vile,crude pride of being in the gutter his sudden urge to remodel his son in his own image is quite repulsive, and yet he has glimmers(accidentally really) when he turns up at just the moment the son is looking for a distraction or rescue from his normal life and a 'naughty dad' with the ostentatious car and money to flash is every teenagers dream. And poor Mark. The undersung hero.who tries to keep everyone calm and considerate. He even seems to feel a genuine warmth for Palmer. It feels as though there could have been just a little more of the story to give us some closure.. A nice intelligent and entertaining drama, thank you i

The guy who wrote this was arrested for sexually assaulting a choir boy. When he got out of prison he moved to Thailand

Excellent. People who are having a mid-life crisis and return to family, plus they have a drinking problem. Today it would probably include drugs.

Enjoyable. Ex-husband suddenly back into the picture. He's a self-made man with the strengths and weaknesses of such a man.

A nice find 👏❤️

Beautiful, outstanding old style Hereford cattle. Today's Herefords, while retaining the coloring, are at least half again as large as we see here. I think there is something to be said for the smaller stature cattle. Bigger isn't always better.
