In
a quiet Lancashire pub life goes on despite the rumored invasion
of Poland. Memories of the past war are resurrected by the
possibility of another.
In
a room upstairs the old man is being looked after by his
granddaughter, her male friend comes into the pub looking for his
father with high hopes of waylaying her.
Part
of his father’s life is spent in the pub telling tales of how he
drove London buses to and from the front in the last war. One
poignant tale of a mothers love and determination is told to his
prospective daughter-in-law whilst his own son is fighting this
new enemy.
No
programme was available for this show, which is performed by a
cast of seven. Partly self-written it is drawn from experiences
from the local area.
I
did not like the start and felt the end could have been a little
clearer.
