It's a long way from Hessle to Hessle Road. When Tom and Sylvia meet on the dance floor in 1938 they begin a romance that crosses the class divide. Tom's aspirational mother Grace is horrified that her son has taken up with a girl who works in the fish house, whilst Sylvia's brother David has no time for her daft bank clerk boyfriend. That's until the divided families are thrown together when the Second World War reaches Hull. Suddenly class means nothing and all that matters is surviving. As the Blitz shatters their world apart, Tom and Sylvia struggle to hold their relationship together.T1986763001World Premiere.
