Reverend Kate said: “Of course a lot has changed since then, but I want to see what some modern families think of our 1973 trailblazers.”
The reverend then invited some families to a special screening of the documentary in a Sheffield cinema.
Families began to arrive and they grabbed some popcorn and made themselves comfortable.
“The documentary features two families, the Turners and the Slates,” she added.
In the documentary, the Turner family saw 39-year-old mum Jean return to work as a school’s dentist.
Her husband, Keith, coped for a year running the household and taking care of their children.
