from the books by John Moore adapted for television by Hugh Whitemore
John Moore's books are about life in and around Tewkesbury (fictionalised as Elmbury) up to 1945. A high-spirited 'midnight steeple-chase' by young farmers, the effect of the 1931 depression, and a friendship with one of the characters of the district, an irascible retired Colonel, all form part of this first film.
