Synopsis by Hal Erickson

Anna Carteret and David Suchet (TV's Hercule Poirot) star in Being Normal. The pair play a British couple who must come to terms with their son's physical handicap. "Denial" is the operative word in the early scenes, leading to several tense confrontations. According to one press release, Being Normal was inspired by a true story. This British made-for-TV feature was first presented in the US on the ARTS cable service.
