It looks great] All available DVDs are poor quality (update: at the time of this upload). This one wobbles slightly (the opening, with the film certificate looks worst). Synopsis:

Not long after Dot (Rita Tushingham) leaves school, Reggie (Colin Campbell) and Dot get married and head off to Butlins on their honeymoon. But not long after returning home, the cracks start to show. Dot wants to be a ‘kept’ woman, while Reggie wants to spend his spare time with his bike and his biker mates at the Ace Cafe.

Then along comes Pete (Dudley Sutton) like a blast of fresh air, up for fun and adventure – just the friend Reggie needs as his marriage starts to fall apart. But things aren’t quite as obvious as they seem. For Reggie, Pete is the best friend he never had and someone to rely on in times of strife.

But Pete’s motives aren’t quite so pure – he’s very keen to keep Reggie for himself and pull him away from Dot. This is in Standard Definition from an obviously unofficial DVD that was available. I took an HD rip for an HD upload, to maximise the existing rather poor quality.

The film has never been a restored (no available masters) so until and unless a restored DVD comes along, this would seem to be the best we're going to get.
