Fanny and Elvis (1999 Kay Mellor & scr)

Because we had just watched the first, great part of her new series  Love, Lies and Records. Near the beginning, Ray Winstone (a sensitive performance) and Kerry Fox get into an argument over a car prang - they are at one point so close together they are almost kissing. It takes a while for it all to settle, and there's some slightly questionable plotting over their separation, but builds to a happy ending. Ben Daniels is good in support, especially when he pretends to be a doctor. With Colin Salmon, Jennifer Saunders, David Morrissey, Gaynor Faye (Kay's daughter)

That distinctive singer is Cerys Matthews. And why is there a special thanks to Jenny Agutter? And why had we left it so long??
