Daddy, I Don't Like it Like This

on BBC Two England

continues a season of television films dealing with controversial subjects starring
Talia Shire Burt Young

In the early days of their marriage Carol and Rocco Agnelli look forward to a bright future. But as the problem of making a living and keeping a home together mount, they impose their expectations on their young son Peter.
Unfortunately Peter - already under mental strain at his convent school - is incapable of standing the pressure of his environment.
This vivid portrait of a marriage disintegrating and its tragic effect on a young boy was written by its star, Burt Young.
