Synopsis
Single on the 25th
After Nell’s family cancels holiday plans at the last minute, she decides to spend the week of Christmas having fun on her own — and crosses paths with her neighbor, who is “happily unattached.”
The Curse of Steptoe
In the early 1960s aspiring stage actor Harry H. Corbett jumps at the chance to play junk-dealer Harold Steptoe in a television comedy show 'Steptoe and Son'. However, the show's success proves to be a poisoned chalice for him, type-casting him and thwarting his stage ambitions. Wilfrid Brambell, the actor playing his father, is marginalized in a different way. He is a gay man in an England where homosexuality is still illegal.
