You can choose your friends but you can't choose your family – or the secrets it hides... Linda Booth is a nurse – like her aunt, Mary Schormann – and works in the maternity ward of her local hospital in Lancashire. Her parents have a troubled marriage – her mother Ellen drinks too much and she wonders why her soft, old dad puts up with it… Victoria Schormann is chafing against the constraints of life at home in a Welsh village. Her doctor father – a German ex-POW – and British mother keep a low profile desiring a quiet life. But Vicky is attracted to the alternative lifestyle of her new hippy friends… She couldn't be more different to her twin, Richard. It's 1969 and Nelly Shuttleworth is finding life difficult in her old age. Despite the bad blood caused by her sons, she remains close to Mary Schormann, and to her illegitimate granddaughter, Linda. But once her youngest, George, reappears on the scene causing trouble for Linda and Richard, feisty Nelly determines to sort him out for once and all.
