The Romance

29 mins

Margaret proposes that the group goes on hunger strike to support their imprisoned sisters in London, but is hampered by thoughts of buns and Gwen buying up all the stock when the local cheese shop closes down. The women encourage Thomas to propose to his adored Emily, whose mother Helen has arranged a marriage of convenience to wealthy Bertie Smuth. Thomas composes a love letter which, for all the wrong reasons, works to his advantage.
