    Desc: Harnessing Peacocks: Directed by James Cellan Jones. With Serena Scott Thomas, Peter Davison, John Mills, Nicholas Le Prevost. The beautiful Hebe Rutter has been cast out by her family after a teenage pregnancy to a masked stranger during a fiesta in Italy. She makes ends meet and pays for her son's school fees by cooking for old ladies and sleeping with a small syndicate of adoring men (the "peacocks" of the title, from Greek mythology). The story revolves around Hebe, her "clients", and their families, and is set against a backdrop of village life in southwest England. There is a sub-theme of the antiques trade which draws some of the characters together, and ultimately resolves the mystery of Hebe's masked lover.
