Uncle Douglas

Synopsis

Christmas morning. The Tompkinson family’s peace is shattered by the arrival of narrow-minded Uncle Douglas. Michael and Sarah Tompkinson’s only solace is that Douglas’s wife Pat has proved to be an invaluable shoulder to cry on for their father Barry, and they appear to be growing closer by the day.
