This Happy Breed by Noel Coward
John Moffatt and Rosemary Leach star in this BC Radio 4 production of Noel Coward s patriotic play about the ups and downs of a working-class family between 1919 and 1939.
This Happy Breed opens in 1919, when the Gibbons family has just moved to their smart new home in the suburbs of South London. Against a background of social change and national upheaval spanning twenty years, the family celebrates their own triumphs and deals with their personal traumas.
Coward s moving and humorous production, showing what life was like for a typical suburban family between the wars, was a huge hit and was adapted into a famous 1944 film starring John Mills and Celia Johnson. Among the distinguished cast in this 1989 BC Radio 4 production are John Moffatt, Rosemary Leach, Anna Cropper, and Doris Hare.
