People haven't really changed much since Victorian times; as this choice little vignette demonstrates which anticipates - this time with a happy ending - the excruciating scene sixty-six years later in 'A Kind of Loving' in which Alan Bates' night on the town is wrecked by June Ritchie's insistence on bringing along with them her pudding of a friend Patsy Rowlands.
Here the two romantic leads leap upon one another with ravenous gusto and it's the girl who this time takes the lead by pausing briefly to smartly overturn the park bench they've chosen for their tryst the better to eject the old biddy intruding upon their canoodling by plonking herself down next to them to read a book. The End.
