Writer Tony Marchant looks back on his 1989 drama Take Me Home, a troubled love story set amidst a political backdrop of changing attitudes, technological advances and residential development. \n\nThe drama was Tony’s first serial for television, and he remembers its journey from page to screen, including the casting of well-known faces Keith Barron, Reece Dinsdale, Maggie O’Neill and Annette Crosbie. \n\nTony reflects on how the drama has not lost its relevance. The story of two lost souls, both at odds with the fast-paced development of the modern world, coming together is just as meaningful today as it ever was.
