The Mother

BBC Two
on BBC Two England

Mature and sensitively handled romantic drama starring Anne Reid and Daniel Craig, and written by Hanif Kureishi. Visiting their grown-up children in London, elderly couple May and Toots feel excluded by the frenetic pace of modern city life. In fact, their son's handyman, Darren, has more time for them than their own family members. Review page 70. (2003,15)
