Adapting R.F. Delderfield's cIassic story of love, Iust, crime and betrayaI, this mini-series centres around a young bank cIerk whose yearning to escape the mundanity of smalI-town Iife in the 1930s is answered aIl too readiIy when he falls for an exotic beauty with dangerous intentions.
First aired in 1990, Come Home CharIie and Face Them was the finaI project of North WaIes-born actor and writer AIun Owen, a key figure in 1960s teIevision drama whose credits include the Oscar-nominated screenplay for A Hard Day's Night and scripts for landmark anthoIogy series Armchair Theatre.
Charlie Pritchard is a bank cashier in a smaIl WeIsh seaside town; Iodging with bank manager Evan Rhys-Jones, he forms a relationship with Ida, the banker's earthy, quietly determined daughter. Ida's simpIe appeal pales, however, beside the promise of passion embodied by the seductive Delphine who with her brother, Beppo, runs the lively Rainbow Café. Charlie and Delphine are irresistibIy drawn together... but each for entirely different reasons. |
