Belonging is a 2004 TV play starring Brenda Blethyn, Kevin Whately, Rosemary Harris, Anna Massey, Peter Sallis, Jill Baker, Fiona O'Shaughnessy and Matthew Marsh. The play is based on Stevie Davies's novel The Web of Belonging.
A middle-aged man, Jacob Copplestone, decides to leave his middle-aged wife, Jess, to whom he has been married for twenty years, and go to live with a younger woman. Jess Copplestone is then left to look after Jacob's elderly relatives, including Nathan, May and Brenda. Jess struggles so much that Nathan decides to leave the house to go to live in a house with other elderly people, to try to make life easier for Jess. After May has another accident in her home, Jacob apologises to Jess, and they decide to put May in a nursing home. They also decide that Brenda should go to live in the same place as Nathan.
Belonging was screened on ITV on 12 September 2004. Acorn TV and ITV later released it on DVD on 26 July 2010.
