RECENTLY broadcast on BBC1, this six-part wartime drama chronicles the trials and tribulations of staff and patients in a front-line hospital in France.
Sister Margaret Quayle (Kerry Fox) is dismayed when nurse Grace Carter (Hermione Norris) is promoted to the position of Matron.
Grace’s promotion coincides with the arrival of three new nurses, Flora (Alice St Clair), Kitty (Oona Chaplin) and Rosalie (Marianne Oldham), who are determined to make an invaluable contribution to the war effort and treat all injured soldiers equally.
