1. No Escape
Autumn 1916: Edith wants to start a new life with Aylmer, but she can't shake off her ex-husband Bruce. Stars Ifan Meredith.
Based on characters from Ada Leverson's trilogy of novels, writer Martyn Wade draws the delightful and romantic entanglements of the Ottleys to a close.
Autumn 1916 - Edith, Aylmer and Bruce remain in their infernal, triangular charade and seem as helpless and doomed as they ever were.

What on earth Edith wonders, is to become of them all........
