Adapted from the novel by Paul Scott, this 90-minute drama casts Howard and Johnson as an elderly British couple, spending their declining years in a faraway Himalayan resort. Though Colonial India is a thing of the past, the couple clings to their fading memories of the Raj's glory days. The film was lensed on location in Simia, a popular vacationing spot for British and Indian aristocracy. Staying On was first telecast in the US on May 11, 1981, as part of PBS' Great Performances series. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
