The hardships and deprivations of many months of war begin to bite hard for those at home and abroad, those fighting and in captivity. ‘Love’ continues the tale of ‘Lives Apart’, telling the stories of a group of individuals and their families: Joe Price: Moved from one camp to another, Joe faces great dangers at the hands of a sadistic German guard, but his greatest worry comes in the form of a single letter from home, that could change his life forever. Peggy Cooper: While facing the dangers of bombings and the loss of a dear friend, Peggy must also deal with her growing feelings for Chris and her guilt about Joe, leaving her wondering if she’s destined to face loss, loneliness and unhappiness forever. Louis Servier: Having teamed up with Henri, Louis is now helping the resistance. He misses Brigitte, while accepting her choices, but then love re-appears in the most unexpected circumstances. Brigitte Fabron: Abused by Rolf, Brigitte wonders whether she made the right choice in leaving Louis. She knows there’s no way back now, so looks for another way to make the German pay for his actions. Marcel Servier: Desperate to turn back the clock, Marcel must accept the consequences of his actions and ‘do the right thing’, although in doing so, he knows he’s giving up the love of his life. Olive Cooper: Having been forced into a new alliance, Olive faces a different series of dangers, but finds hope from a surprising quarter. Pamela Lloyd-Smythe: Facing danger at every turn, Pam relishes her new position, but finds herself questioning her emotions and the meaning of love in war. Jeanne Coultard: Following the death of her friend, Eve, Jeanne cannot escape the feeling that she’s being followed. Turning to her boss, Gabriel, for help, she finds herself falling in love and getting a lot more assistance than she bargained for. With war comes separation, hardship and change, and this is no more felt than in ‘Love’, where relationships are tested to the limits. This is the third of a five part chronicle, telling the story of several individuals and their families through the Second World War. ** Some Adult Content **
