Penelope Mortimer (wife of writer John Mortimer) was indeed the novelist who penned The Pumpkin Eater. She also wrote the screenplay for a brilliant, if little known, film from 1988 called A Summer Story. By all means, see A Summer Story if you have the opportunity. Penelope Mortimer based her screenplay on The Apple Tree, a short story by John Galsworthy.</span></p><p class="yiv5846376404MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:14.0pt;"> </span></p><p class="yiv5846376404MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:14.0pt;">Another connection . . .</span></p><p class="yiv5846376404MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:14.0pt;">The wonderful John Savident, who played Sefton's solicitor, George Askew, in A Family at War, appears as a bank clerk in A Summer Story.

I might also mention that James Beck appears in that episode as NAAFI deliveryman Bob O'Connell, who is having a "tea party" (David Ashton's words) with Sheila when David returns home unannounced. Beck, of course, was spiv Joe Walker on Dad's Army until his premature death at the age of 44. "The War Office Regrets" was taped while he was at the height of his fame as a cast member of Dad's Army. I'm not sure how Beck was chosen for the role of O'Connell, but he does an excellent job in this dramatic role.</span></p><p class="yiv5846376404MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:14.0pt;"> </span></p><p class="yiv5846376404MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:14.0pt;">Richard Veit</span></p><p class="yiv5846376404MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:14.0pt;"> </span></p><div style="border:none;border-top:solid #B5C4DF 1.0pt;padding:3.0pt 0cm 0cm 0cm;"><p class="yiv5846376404MsoNormal"><b><span lang="EN-US" style="color:black;">From: </span></b><span lang="EN-US" style="color:black;"><<a rel="nofollow" shape="rect" ymailto="mailto:afamilyatwar-list-bounces@baylor.edu" target="_blank" href="mailto:afamilyatwar-list-bounces@baylor.edu">afamilyatwar-list-bounces@baylor.edu</a>> on behalf of AFAMILYATWAR-LIST <<a rel="nofollow" shape="rect" ymailto="mailto:Afamilyatwar-list@baylor.edu" target="_blank" href="mailto:Afamilyatwar-list@baylor.edu">Afamilyatwar-list@baylor.edu</a>><br clear="none"><b>Reply-To: </b>AFAMILYATWAR-LIST <<a rel="nofollow" shape="rect" ymailto="mailto:Afamilyatwar-list@baylor.edu" target="_blank" href="mailto:Afamilyatwar-list@baylor.edu">Afamilyatwar-list@baylor.edu</a>>, "<a rel="nofollow" shape="rect" ymailto="mailto:christine.kendell@btopenworld.com" target="_blank" href="mailto:christine.kendell@btopenworld.com">christine.kendell@btopenworld.com</a>" <<a rel="nofollow" shape="rect" ymailto="mailto:christine.kendell@btopenworld.com" target="_blank" href="mailto:christine.kendell@btopenworld.com">christine.kendell@btopenworld.com</a>><br clear="none"><b>Date: </b>Wednesday, March 21, 2018 at 5:03 AM<br clear="none"><b>To: </b>AFAMILYATWAR-LIST <<a rel="nofollow" shape="rect" ymailto="mailto:Afamilyatwar-list@baylor.edu" target="_blank" href="mailto:Afamilyatwar-list@baylor.edu">Afamilyatwar-list@baylor.edu</a>>, 'Brian Renforth' <<a rel="nofollow" shape="rect" ymailto="mailto:renforthb@live.co.uk" target="_blank" href="mailto:renforthb@live.co.uk">renforthb@live.co.uk</a>>, 'Scott Filderman' <<a rel="nofollow" shape="rect" ymailto="mailto:scottfilderman@yahoo.com" target="_blank" href="mailto:scottfilderman@yahoo.com">scottfilderman@yahoo.com</a>><br clear="none"><b>Subject: </b>Re: [Afamilyatwar-list] Patrick Troughton/Lesley Nunnerly</span></p></div><div><p class="yiv5846376404MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11.0pt;"> </span></p></div><p class="yiv5846376404MsoNormal"><a rel="nofollow" shape="rect" name="_MailOriginalBody"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11.0pt;">Lesley was in a film called The Pumpkin Eater, based on a novel by Penelope Mortimer, I believe.</span></a><span lang="EN-US"></span></p><p class="yiv5846376404MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11.0pt;"> </span><span lang="EN-US"></span></p><p class="yiv5846376404MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11.0pt;">Christine</span><span lang="EN-US"></span></p><p class="yiv5846376404MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11.0pt;"> </span><span lang="EN-US"></span></p><div><div style="border:none;border-top:solid #B5C4DF 1.0pt;padding:3.0pt 0cm 0cm 0cm;"><p class="yiv5846376404MsoNormal"><b><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:10.0pt;">From:</span></b><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:10.0pt;"> </span><a rel="nofollow" shape="rect" ymailto="mailto:afamilyatwar-list-bounces@baylor.edu" target="_blank" href="mailto:afamilyatwar-list-bounces@baylor.edu"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:10.0pt;">afamilyatwar-list-bounces@baylor.edu</span></a><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:10.0pt;"> [</span><a rel="nofollow" shape="rect" ymailto="mailto:afamilyatwar-list-bounces@baylor.edu" target="_blank" href="mailto:afamilyatwar-list-bounces@baylor.edu"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:10.0pt;">mailto:afamilyatwar-list-bounces@baylor.edu</span></a><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:10.0pt;">] <b>On Behalf Of </b>Brian Renforth via Afamilyatwar-list<br clear="none"><b>Sent:</b> 20 March 2018 21:31<br clear="none"><b>To:</b> </span><a rel="nofollow" shape="rect" ymailto="mailto:afamilyatwar-list@baylor.edu" target="_blank" href="mailto:afamilyatwar-list@baylor.edu"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:10.0pt;">afamilyatwar-list@baylor.edu</span></a><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:10.0pt;">; Scott Filderman<br clear="none"><b>Subject:</b> Re: [Afamilyatwar-list] Patrick Troughton/Lesley Nunnerly</span><span lang="EN-US"></span></p></div></div><p class="yiv5846376404MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"> </span></p><div><div><p class="yiv5846376404MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11.0pt;">I can't say I'm familiar with Paul of Tarsus but know Patrick played Robin Hood in a mid '50s BBC production (not to be confused with the ITC series starring Richard Greene).
