Husband, parents, in-laws doctors, nurses, neighbours - all have views on Sue's pregnancy. Sue just wishes they would treat her as a human being and not a walking time-bomb.
David Lay tells the story of the Pathan tribes of thewild Central Asian mountains.

'The room, with its four white walls, from which the three pink chairs stood out like strawberries from whipped cream, Jay in the unstable light of the candle. But the wardrobe over there was open and it was not empty. Somebody was standing in it, a creature so lovely that Albrecht van der Qualen 's heart stood still a moment and then in long, deep, quiet throbs resumed its beating.' Producer
