form y separately published work icon Love Child ( dir. Geoff Bennett et. al. )agent Australia : Playmaker Media Nine Network , 2014- 7030158 2014 series - publisher film/TV

'A character drama set in 1969 in Kings Cross; the time and place Australia came of age and the new generation broke all the rules. It was the Summer of Love. Mick Jagger was in town, Australia was glued to the telecast of the moon landing and American sailors clashed on the street with anti-Vietnam war protesters. We follow Joan Millar, 28, a maverick midwife returning to Australia and five young pregnant women, whose choices for their babies and own lives exemplify the radical changes at the heart of the cultural and sexual revolution. Their lives intersect between a maternity hospital, a home for unwed mothers and the wild streets of Darlinghurst.'

On the eve of their twenty-fifth wedding-anniversary it seems they're at last about to have the house to themselves.

But home can seem a very welcome refuge when unforeseen problems loom.'
