Plot: In post-war London Viv Pearce, seeing married spiv Reggie, runs a dating bureau with Helen Giniver, who lives with her older lover, authoress Julia Standing. Viv's younger brother Duncan, a tormented homosexual, has been in prison and is sought out by his - straight - ex-cellmate Robert Fraser, who served time as a conscientious objector and is now concerned for the boy's welfare. Viv encounters Kay Langrish, a wealthy, reclusive butch lesbian and for both women this evokes memories of 1944 when Kay was an heroic ambulance driver and Helen was Kay's girlfriend, before Kay introduced her to her ex-lover Julia. Viv had an illegal abortion, funded by Reggie, and, after she needed hospital treatment, Kay saved her from prosecution by claiming she was a married woman who had miscarried. Three years earlier Kay and Julia are still an item and Viv meets unhappily married soldier Reggie on a train. Kay pulls Helen from the wreckage of a bombed house whilst we learn why Duncan was in prison following a suicide pact with the boy he loved. As the scene returns to 1947 there are happier endings for some, not for others but there is still optimism.

You see he wasn't like the other guys that I had ever met
That's why I'm holding tight every night
(I go outta my mind)
Thinking bout where you could be
No you're not with me
Where you go I need to be
(Chasing you constantly)
Instead I believe
That's why
You don't have no lover
You love no one else but me
Yeah you will remember
You see no one else but me
All I ever wanted was someone to show me
What it could be like and would feel to be
As soon as I discovered there is nothing better
My baby and me
And that's why
You don't have no lover
You love no one else but me
Yeah you will remember
You see no one else but me
He don't have no other
He loves no one else but me
Girl you must remember
He sees no one else but me
That's why I'm holding tight every night

Thinking bout where you could be
No you're not with me
Where you go I need to be
(Chasing you constantly)
Instead I believe
That's why
You don't have no lover
You love no one else but me
