William Trevor's own adaptation of his acclaimed novel, starring Prunella Scales and Peter Jeffrey. Mrs Delahunty - she's never actually been married, but "Mrs" suits her better than "Miss" - has been a Madame in Africa and is now a successful romantic novelist. When a young American girl, an elderly British general and a German traveller survive a terrorist attack on an Italian train, Mrs Delahunty finds a new purpose in life caring for this unlikely group.
