The Village

SYNOPSIS

Polling day draws closer in the village, resulting in an even deeper rift between Grace and John as she becomes increasingly impressed by Bill Gibby's left-wing ideas, which leads to John banning her from voting. Elsewhere, John is finally making a success of the dairy farm after he installs a mobile-milking machine and takes over the village's provision of milk when Rutter's herd get TB. Clem is also happy - she has found the perfect match for Edmund - Lord Kilmartin's daughter Harriet. Meanwhile, Bert asks Eyre for advice about Martha and Phoebe, and is it a case of too little, too late for Gilbert and Agnes? Period drama starring Maxine Peake, John Simm and Tom Varey.
