A delightful look at the early life of Margaret Wood. Born in Swindon, her father worked as a fitter for the Great Western Railway, and she and her two sisters grew up only minutes from the factory gates. Margaret looks back at her schooldays, from milk monitoring to knitting lessons, and the childhood games played in the living room. She also covers the war years, the air raid sirens and the fear that the nearby factories would be bombed. After the war, Margaret gave up on her dreams of being an actress, instead beginning to teach typing and shorthand to American Air Force personnel stationed nearby.
