Family Members
assemble to celebrate Christmas in the home of their widowed father, Rev.
Martin Gregory (Ralph Richardson) in a quaint English village where his
daughter Jenny (Celia Johnson) keeps house for him.
They are joined by his
other daughter Margaret (Margaret Leighton), son Michael (Denholm Elliott),
Aunt Lydia (Margaret Halstan) Aunt Bridget (Maureen Delaney) and family friend
Richard Wyndham (Hugh Williams).
They all present themselves
as well met but deep secrets are hidden on the pretext that the Reverend
wouldn't understand “because he's a parson”
But of course nothing
can be kept hidden for ever so the truth begins to be revealed bit by bit in a
memorable crescendo.
John Gregson also
stars as Jenny’s love interest in this wonderful real Christmas story about
real people in an emotional roller coaster that leaves you wanting more.
