Brilliant story perfectly portrayed showing a bygone era just as it was. Some very clever performances with Bill Nighy' exceptional portrayal. Also the young office girl was excellent to portray a mixture of comedy and emotional moments. The portrayal of offices, street scenes, shops such as Fortnum & Masons, railway stations and office workers of the 50's / 60's was so typical of the time ...I remember it well... and it was so cleverly done. How administrative offices worked in that period was also ver cleverly captured. Indeed, mirrors how some offices, particularly civil service, still operate. The story should be compulsory viewing for all civil servants to learn...but doubt they would!
