In return for a cut, neighbour Peter supplies a car so Neville can take refuge in Yorkshire while Laura deals with the sale of their flat. Long-suppressed feelings between Laura and Peter soon come to the surface, but all efforts to ‘cement their relationship’ seem doomed to end in frustration at the hands of the emergency services. |
