Felicity Kendal, Simon Shepherd

The Bliss family – recently-retired Judith, the once glittering star of the London stage; David, an egocentric novelist; and Sorel and Simon, their two Bohemian adult children – are incapable of sharing the spotlight.

Unconventional, risque, and often downright rude, they are everything a respectable English family should not be.

When each member of the family invites a guest to their rural retreat,
the unassuming visitors are thrown into a living melodrama.

Misjudged meetings, secret seductions and scandalous revelations proliferate during one outrageous weekend in Berkshire.
