Meantime
Under Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher's premiership, a working-class family in London's East End is struggling to stay afloat. Only the mother, Mavis, works; father Frank and the couple's two sons, Colin, a timid, chronically shy individual, and Mark, an outspoken, headstrong young man, are unemployed. This situation is contrasted by the presence of Mavis's sister Barbara and her husband John, whose financial and social success appears to be a comfortable cover for the unspoken soreness of a failing marriage.
