Review
'A Time to Dance' is a compelling, evocative & highly captivating drama
set in and around The Lake District, Cumbria, England.
The book was written by Melvyn Bragg in 1990 and made into a TV
adaptation two years later.
Ronald Pickup stars as a retiring bank manager who falls in love with
Dervla Kirwan's character, Bernardette Kennedy, an 18 year old girl
from a local council estate. The bank manager is married but his wife
has terminal cancer.
The story is one of love, lust, jealousy, frustration, mixed loyalties,
obsession, misunderstandings & the issues & problems that are present
in a relationship where there is a large age & class gap, though common
ground is found in this instance.
The main pub, bank and 'home' scenes were filmed at The Tythe Barn and
what is now HSBC in Cockermouth, Cumbria. I have revisited the
locations several times over the years and lived in the area for a
while.
It is indeed true that there were some raunchy scenes between the two
main characters but they were entirely appropriate and in keeping with
the plot.
It is a pity Ms Kirwan seems to regret her role because of the
publicity it received at the time. She was only 19 and felt she did not
have enough support.
I found it one of the most emotional and compelling dramas I have ever
seen and I still remember it fondly & vividly today, some 18 years
after being shown on TV.
I wrote to Lord Bragg in 2008 and he kindly replied, by hand, stating
that he felt the TV adaptation had received unfair reviews, that the
cast was highly skilled & he may consider a sequel at some stage!
