When his parents and uncle - a fatal triangle - self-destruct in 1982, Damien Frobisher, a well-meaning upper class socialist, inherits the huge, run-down Sparrow Hall. Damien would be more than happy to sell his embarassing inheritance to developers, but his domineering and sexually voracious wife Julie sees this as the perfect opportunity to found a commune, based on the socialist principles close to both their hearts.
