A Day Like Sunday by Colin Finbow
4 Extra Debut. On a Bank Holiday weekend beach family holiday, Arthur Blake tries to focus on the good things in his life. Stars Robert Hardy.
It is a sunless Sunday before a Bank Holiday.

People reveal themselves to us, and to themselves, within the framework of a Sunday outing, and although we leave them with a question-mark, we know that the simple events of the day have changed their lives, if only covertly.
