Part 1 of 7 of the 1990 drama. Novelist Felix Cramer and his wife Elizabeth return from abroad to visit his childhood friend Richard Murray, now living with his artist girlfriend Helen and her teenage daughter Sally after leaving his wife Inga some years ago. However, over the evening it's clear that Inga still persists in his life when she later phones to say she has been attacked by a man she picked up that night. As Richard leaves the get together, Helen is resentful of her presence in their lives and sensing that she wants to confide in Elizabeth, Felix offers to pick up Sally from a nightclub for her. But when he does so an attraction develops between the two that they little realize risks destroying everything they hold dear.

This is from an old video recording from when it was originally broadcast in January 1990 and because of it's controversial nature at the time it has never been repeated or released on video or DVD, so rare indeed. This first episode is notoriously slow to get going, but stick with it as eventually it works up to be gripping and absorbing viewing. Enjoy.
