In this made for TV adaptation of Tony Parsons' best-selling novel, Ioan Gruffud plays high-flying executive Harry Silver who has to learn the hard way what fatherhood is all about. When the unsettled Harry has a one-night stand with a colleague, his wife leaves him to care for their five year-old son on his own. After a bad start, he ropes in help from his parents and an American waitress and soon they are discovering how strong the father-son bond can be.

Critics Reviews
Radio Times
Comedian Bill Cosby launched his big-screen career as star and executive producer of this mild, old-fashioned western drama about blacks out west after the Civil War. Cosby is good as the homesteader who takes his young son in pursuit of a stolen horse, but director EW Swackhamer lets too many actors chew the scenery and stages some unconvincing shoot-outs. Yaphet Kotto plays a powerful bully, Douglas Turner Ward is a cantankerous outlaw, while Leif Erickson has the only substantial white role as a lawman.
