Second Sight

on BBC Two England

Women first filmed in the 60s tell the story of their lives over the past 20 years. Jill Woollaston
In 1966, Jill Woollaston was a consultant psychiatrist married to a Labour MP, Arthur Palmer , with two teenage daughters. She was an early feminist - one of the pioneers of the working woman, balancing the demands of career and family. Today, Jill, in her 70s, is retired. She is still happily married and still a feminist. She has five grandchildren. In this film, she looks back over her life, with the help of her family, and faces the prospect of growing old.
