Love the history in this. Thinking about it being pre gas & air. This was about the time my BIL was born so not that long ago.

Brilliant so far! This storyline on the ship I vaguely remember from the book.
Bit bored of ladder climbing...

Thoroughly enjoying it! A ship indeed!
Could any one of them be the father?
I don't get why the husband got her to get in the Car - was he prostituting her?

Yes, I think he was, Jazz. 
Really bittersweet tonight. <sobs>
Yes I think so. I don't remember that from the books so I'm guessing that's a new bit. I do recognise the one on the ship though.
What was the prison sentence then for child neglect?

Yes, jazz, he was. I thought that right from the start then when her mum said about the rumours about them...
As someone up thread said, bloody marvellous stuff! Fab historical drama at it's best- so atmospheric, moving, uplifting and excellent story telling(love Vanessa Redgrave's voice). Every episode I laugh and cry.
That's all- just had to gush.

Sorry I couldn't hear the tv, baby was waking with all the screaming when she was pushing.
What was the girl on the ship doing? Or what was her dad doing with her. I got the bit that she didn't know that she was pregnant.
