29 Acacia Avenue

It has been mentioned in another review that there is no mention of World War 2.I wonder if it was the intention to set this in the thirties.The point is that all of the beating around the bush about sex must have seemed very tame if not dated to a generation that had just emerged from a world war.Where the attitudes to sex and marriage had been radically altered.Where sex before marriage had become much more the accustomed thing.So to see the main couple go through the film bickering about it must surely have seemed strange if not totally unrealistic.Also odd to see Jimmy Hanley spurning his real life wife,Dinah Sheridan for an older woman.Gordon Harker gives his usual first rate performance.One final point,it is all very well to have postcards sent from foreign destinations but who posted them abroad?
