A second chance to see the first-ever television production of a children's classic that has retained its popularity for almost 40 years. Set in an English seaside town in the late 30s, the story tells of a group of eager, stage-struck youngsters who turn a disused old chapel into a theatre, with themselves as resident company.

Four films about the common experiences which highlight people's lives.
2: The Happiest Day?
Three couples launch themselves into an institution that seems more popular than ever, despite the growing divorce rate.
Les and Frances Higginbottom from Liverpool marrying on the dole, living with in-laws, prospects look bleak. June and Bill Griffiths tie the knot in style in Perthshire and start off with all the advantages that money can bring. Georgie and Tom Stirling are first cousins, and travelling show people. She has been married before but both are sure this time it's for ever.
Reporter Bernard Falk follows them through their happiest day and listens to advice, on how to make marriages stick, from agony columnist Claire Rayner and a couple who have been married for over half a century.
