Synopsis

After a young woman falls pregnant, she decides to go against the tide of advice from her family and unsympathetic welfare authorities by keeping her baby. Misery and hardship ensues. Paul Maunder brings kitchen sink drama to New Zealand television with a controversial story that can claim to have effected social change, stirring up public debate about the DPB for single Mothers. Keep an eye out for Paul Holmes as a moustached wannabe Lothario.
