I saw this series on TV in 1984 after having myself moved to Sweden in 1977 to be with a Swedish girl I met in 1974. Colin Nutley catches the very essence of the issue as regards a whole row of factors that come into play when one emigrates for love. The subtle differences in the cultures between England and Sweden and the general atmosphere of such a romance and the practicalities involved are excellently portrayed and for me the whole film was trip down memory lane. I wish I could get hold of a copy. For the record I am still with my Swedish girl friend who has been my wife for over 30 years and my friend for getting on for 36 years.
