At an anniversary screening of the film, Ken Loach spoke of how the play had become an important part in making the debate on homelessness public. At the same event his producer, Tony Garnett, pointed out that the number of homeless in Britain had more than doubled "but Ken [Loach] and I now live in much more expensive houses."

46 Years On Still Packs A Punch

I didn't see this when it came out but remember friends discussing it. It would have been on the Australian Broadcasting Commission Channel 2. Some how it always stuck in my mind and finally ordered the DVD. England was in a bad way after the War. War costs money and sometimes you wonder who won the war (or battle) as Japan and Germany seem to come out like Phoenix out of a fire. What went horribly wrong that so many people were left homeless, landlords allowed to rent hovels and the "No Children" clause. Separated families, men in one lodgings, wife and children in another. No visitations after 8pm. Sex obviously didn't happen before that time.
