In 1972, during the chaotic days of miners strikes and the three-day week, Bridget Brix Shipley moves to Plunge Hill to start her new job as a medical secretary at the local hospital. As she writes to Maurice, her younger brother, sick at home (who never replies), it becomes clear that not all is well at Plunge Hill. There are frequent power cuts and she has to work by candlelight. While shed hoped this might inspire some blitz spirit and solidarity between her, the other secretaries and the medical staff, shes increasingly isolated and seemingly ignored by her co-workers.
