The Spoils of War

In the aftermath of the Second World War, the Haywards are staunch labour supporters, the Warringtons own a soon to be nationalised coal mine. A riveting story exploring the differing effects of the Labour election victory on working class and upper class life, as well as the disruptive effect of war on the love lives of the younger members of the families.
