THE LONG SHOE
Bob Mortimer
Bathroom salesman Matt is at a crossroads. He has lost his job, he is about to be made homeless and his girlfriend has left him. He wants his luck to change and he wants things to go back to how they were. Out of the blue he is offered a job that comes with a free luxury apartment. He hopes this might be enough to tempt her back. But, as events unfold, it starts to dawn on him that perhaps she didn’t leave of her own accord after all.
A mind of my own
Kathy Burke
Even when she was a kid in Islington, Kathy Burke did things her own way. Gaining a place at the Anna Scher Theatre as a teenager changed the course of her life, and she became an actor in 1982. By the mid-1990s Kathy was a household name. Whether you know her as the beloved Perry, for her award-winning acting, or for being proudly woke, Kathy has always had a mind of her own.
The WOMEN
Kristin Hannah
‘Women can be heroes, too’. When the young nursing student, Frances ‘Frankie’ McGrath, hears these words, it is a revelation. Raised on California’s Coronado Island and sheltered by her conservative parents, she has always prided herself on doing the right thing. But in 1965 the world is changing, and she imagines a different path for her life. When her brother ships out to serve in Vietnam, she impulsively joins the Army Nurses Corps and follows his path. As green and inexperienced as the young men sent to Vietnam to fight, Frankie is overwhelmed by the chaos and destruction of war, as well as the unexpected trauma of coming home to a changed America. Frankie will also discover the true value of female friendship and the heartbreak that love can cause.
