SPOILER (OF SORTS): Out-of-the-ordinary little one-hour film, that sees one couple invite another to their home, on a farm in the country. The farm couple (Neil Melville and Julie Forsyth) are warm-hearted and simple; the visiting couple (James Laurie and Rebecca Gilling) are very much "city" types; Gilling in particular seems unimpressed with this "simple" way of life. Disconcerting story poses questions (such as, why don't we want to see the baby? Is there something grossly wrong with it?), and then peters out to a feel-good climax, with the city couple leaving as better people than when they arrived. 6/10
