In this 1970s comedy, a married couple with six children grapples with marital difficulties, while their live-in au-pair falls pregnant after being refused intimacy by her husband until he uses birth control. The film is based on Kevin Laffan's play of the same name and stars Hywel Bennett, Nanette Newman, and Milo O'Shea in a story that touches on themes of Catholicism, birth control, and the challenges faced by women.
