Comedy drama. A family's camping
holiday in the South of France takes a series of disastrous turns especially
once the enigmatic Early Bird and her secret bearing husband arrive on
the scene. Typically
Davies with its voyeuristic overtones, almost at times like a homage to
Mike Leigh's Nuts in May. Quite a bit of the production was filmed
in Cornwall. Part of the BBC's Screen One strand of high quality shot on
film productions of the late 80's and early 90's.
