Please note

Sorry, we don't have images or video for this item.

There’s nothing the matter with sexual inexperience. It’s perfectly natural as Peter and Patricia eventually discover after some rather embarrassing and sensitive moments. Having met through a lonely hearts club, they embark on a timid, tentative relationship, but problems arise because of Peter’s clumsy attempts at love making. What follows is a delightful, sensitive love story, simply told with compassion and humour, full of real characters who surround and complicate our everyday lives. Starring Wendy Hughes and Norman Kaye.
