Season 01
Elderly Francis Coyle recalls how in 1943 an American Air Force unit came to the Northern Irish village of Moybeg, where his mother Rose and father Michael kept the shop and bar. The locals are not welcoming to the incomers, especially when Francis's 16 year old sister rejects love-lorn Barney Quinn to go on a date with 20-year old pilot Frank Barnhill, who is beaten up by the villagers and saved only by Rose's intervention. A year later Frank is killed in action. Rose herself, as an Englishwoman, feels slightly isolated and is pleased when Captain Ronald Dreyfuss asks her to act as liaison between the locals and the servicemen. Written by don @ minifie-1
