Everything in the Garden by GILES COOPER , with Hannah Gordon as Jenny Acton and Peter Barkworth as Bernard Acton
It is 1958 and the Actons are a typical, civilised couple living in an outer suburb of London. They have a nice house, a nice garden and, although there is always a need for money, their lives are basically comfortable. But there is always another side to Giles Cooper 's characters, even the most ordinary, and it is the visit of Leonie Pimosz , a Polish Jewess, that alters the Actons' way of life.
