Cutbacks "The Movie"
There is a new film out depicting life in cutback Britain today, the male lead is a suave sophisticated thespian gent who had the fortitude and foresight to provide himself (during the productive years) with a secure financial base, now being mortgage free, and custodian to and adequate bank balance.
His Achilles heel is the fact that in entering his twilight years, the support functions he may need as he ages are slowly being withdrawn, as the national books are balanced, he knows being comfortably off will not protect him from the possible rigours ahead.
The female lead is an auburn haired, free spirited minx, who has lived life to the full who, shared bases with many gentlemen, but never committed, and is now an out of work actress, and due to the financial crisis she cannot afford a mortgage, and inflated London rents prevent her from having her own pad, as such, she has no option but to call in favours from previous contacts, to maintain a roof over her head.
Of course they meet, wine dine and dance, amalgamate, and become a unit against these modern day curses, the roles being played by Fred Austere and Ginger Lodger.
