Lemon Meringue Pie Steven Barkley has just completed his National Service and is on the point of leaving Cyprus when he receives a letter which he places in his pocket intending to read later. Dawn is just breaking when, passing over Europe, he opens the letter and on reading it receives a shock which will change his life forever. Reluctant to divulge the letters contents, he returns to work in the City feeling bored, guilty and demoralised. A chance sighting of a newspaper advertisement offering a new life down under for just ten pounds appeals to him as impulsively he joins the queue in The Strand outside Australia House. Revelation of the letter plus the Suez crisis and Hungarian uprising, make the purpose for migrating easier for Stevens family to understand as he joins the exodus on a ship load of Ten Pound Poms, bound for Australia.
