Leigh Garner (Dudley Sutton) is a talented boxer with good prospects. He can be angry in the ring but his demons come to the fore when his father Jim (Bernard Lee) reappears from Australia.
Leigh always thought that his father had died. Now Leigh is out of control and he has a championship fight coming up.
It is up to Dr Corder to probe why Leigh hated his father so much. It seems after his mother died. Leigh was sent to live with his aunt and then to a children's home.
An interesting look at childhood abuse, this time from the aunt who was cruel to Leigh. She also poisoned his mind against his father.
Such irrational behaviour from the aunt messed up Leigh.
There is a good performance from Sutton. Better known as Tinker in Lovejoy. In the 1960s he was from a generation of British actors that were influenced by the likes of Brando.
