As I write now in July 2013, aside from the tour de force that was Julie Walters as an ageing hippie, living on the south coast in a crumbling art deco home, flashing her genitals at Richard Dimbleby who lived nearby (!), I have sketchy memories of this tale of a dysfunctional but ultimately loving family gathering as their mother recovers from skin cancer.
In brief those memories are: I enjoyed it, I think we all did, and a lady in our row had to be taken out quite noisily (whether the cancer death story hit too raw a nerve or whether it was something else, we'll never know).
In fact-checking the above, I discover the son was played by Rory Kinnear (see Othello, July 2013).
