Plenty

on BBC Two England

A cool and intelligent study of a woman's disenchantment with her postwar life, adapted by David Hare from his own acclaimed stage play and starring Meryl Streep
Charles Dance with a distinguished cast.
Susan Traheme returns to Britain haunted by her experiences as a resistance fighter in occupied France. Life seems unbearably dull, but Susan's rage against mediocrity and her attempts to find fulfilment are destined not only to damage her own life, but to alter irreparably the lives of those around her.
