Review

 

To eat the fruit of the lotus is to lose the desire to return home. But everyone who does has a reason.

Shepherd's bar is a focal point for a group of expatriates living in and around a small town on the isle of Crete. Run and owned by reformed Alcoholic Erik Shepherd, the bar is a temptation that is never far from Erik's mind, and his faltering marriage to Ann (Wanda Ventham) provides little respite from his addiction.

When Donald Culley (James Kerry) arrives on the island, the populace are drawn to this charming, handsome stranger. However, Culley knows something about Ann that could prove far more devastating that Erik's drinking.

Featuring the complete series 1 of the BBC's The Lotus Eaters.
