The Village Fete

When Nancy and her family move to the country, everything goes wrong. Can anyone help? Stars Shirley Dixon and Maurice Denham.

When Nancy moves to the countryside with her brother, sister and poorly father, everything goes wrong.

The Empson family's new house has a gas leak and needs re-wiring and re-roofing.

Nancy doesn't mind. She likes organising.

But then Winston, the local poacher and handyman, takes over and invites Nancy to the village fete...

Peter Tinniswood's play introduces the Empson family.
