P'tang, Yang, Kipperbang 1982 Directed by Michael Apted

From the producer of “Chariots of Fire” and the director of “Coal Miner's Daughter” comes a light-hearted look at first love

Summer, 1948. 14-year-old Alan has just three wishes: that there will be lasting peace, that England will win the Ashes, and that he will finally kiss classmate Ann. So when he's cast opposite her in a play that requires a kiss and England seem to be doing well in cricket, life couldn't be better.
