Starring: Kathleen Harrison and George Cole
A London family inherit a ramshackle Devon farm, but have reservations about moving to the country
The screenplay for this comedy was adapted by R. F. Delderfield from one of his plays and features a lovely shot of a South Devon Railway branch train arriving at Staverton station long before the arrival of the preservationists. The train is made up of ex-GWR 1400 Class 0-4-2T No.1439 and auto-coach No.W244W. The station looks a little worse for wear but still had three years left before closure.
