Story:
Home help Ruth cares for Harry above and beyond the call of duty. She fetches his shopping, brings him meals, and makes sense of his paperwork. All in all, she's like a daughter to him.
When his health begins to decline, Ruth tries to discover friends or family to care for him but Harry insists there is no one, he's all alone in the world. She becomes even more concerned when a chance discovery reveals a sizable sum of money languishing in his bank account.
Such a bitter sweet story ,one of the best I have heard for some time.Characters that are so believable.Thank heavens for people that genuinely care for others.But did not like the abrupt ending.
Truly enjoyed this story. Warm and caring characters
Wow! That was a good story. Shows that there could be many reasons why a person has money.
Loved this… it’s so true to family life. Thank you.
Ruth, Tess, Harry each played their part superbly, and I thoroughly enjoyed this play.
But like others have previously mentioned the ending was to short.
Very good play 😀
Moral of the story: Don't invest more in your job than you get paid.
Great story and very well acted.
Loved this story thanks so much 🇦🇺
Excellent story. Perfectly recorded. Thank you very much Arch!!!!
Very good drama. Thank you for all the uploads 🦋
Excellent! Thank you!
Very enjoyable. Nice homely domestic setting. Keeps you on your toes. Thanks for uploading👍
Very believable. Nothing more than money to drive wedges between family members.
This is a bittersweet story that is quite believable. I knew a home health worker who was as genuinely kind as Ruth. People's lives are complicated, only God can make sense of all the brokenness we encounter and the hurt we inflict on others. Only the gospel of Jesus's great redemptive death and resurrection can make sense of what seems senseless.
Super play wonderful storyline.
Makes you think doesn’t it, I can’t understand why some people don’t make wills though. Many thanks 🙏
People are afraid of death 😳
Very well acted.
Good story! Thanks.
Brilliant. . Thank you

Thank you thank you for this . We all can learn something from this. I thoroughly enjoyed it. But can you please tell me who the actors were. Much appreciated. Love from South Africa. 🤗🤗
Ruth, Alison Steadman. Harry Roy Hudd, Tess Sally Grace & Amy Polly Frame.
Was that the end suddenly cut off . Very enjoyable tho ty
Hi, pleased you liked the play. All dialogue can be heard but the music was removed at the end because of copyright. Rgds, Arch
so it was jinxed afterall. Money is the root to misery really
Is this Alison Steadman?
Yes it is.
So Ruth’s son and daughter gets the money.
It just stinks the way it ended. She got hit by a car and then the play ended.
Or
Did you,
cut the Play Short. ?
Nice big spoiler, thanks. Perhaps edit your comment to start with "SPOILER ALERT!!!" That would be helpful
❤️
Ruth is neurotic 😏....
Love the story but also, she was a little stubborn woman just keep the money you did what you did to help the man go see your grandkids go see your children no now she’s dead!!🥴
