A Day in Summer (1989)

Member Rating:

A seemingly harmless man comes to a small town with a deadly mission in mind in this British made-for-television movie. Jack Shepherd stars as Peplow, a reserved man who meets up with a disenchanted, crippled veteran (Peter Egan) on the day of their town's annual fair. Unbeknownst to the curmudgeon vet, Peplow has come to town for more than just the fair. ~ Bernadette McCallion, Rovi

This is a made for TV drama which manages to interweave the personal backgrounds/problems of many different people in a village, all of which are heightoned by it being the Day of the Annual Feast (= fair ! ). Although there is plenty of tragedy, this is lightened by various comic elements. Some brilliant acting, especially by Peter Egan, who manages to look sexy even tho massively disabled! Worth watching, and not just once.
