| Description |
It is 25 years on and we revisit the characters of Middle Age Spread. Colin and Elizabeth, now retired, proudly survey their Central Otago vineyard from imported Javanese deck chairs. Sipping their pinot noir as the sun sets, the serenity is only marred by the gentle snores of their layabout son. With their daughter and grand daughter arriving to celebrate the New Year, gatecrashers in the form of old neighbours Reg and Isobel (in their gaudy mobile home) look to ruin all best-laid plans and rout any noble new year's resolutions. A comedy of bad manners, unexpected revelations and marital discord. |
