Julie Walters is a hairdresser from Liverpool joins the Open University and finds more than just education. An interesting view of the effects of higher education on a mature person, from an environment where academic study is not the norm. Great performances from Michael Caine as the drunken lecturer and Julie Walters as the aspirational housewife. The screenplay was written by Willy Russell.
