Synopsis:
Featuring illustrious individual casts and outstanding scripts from a writing team that includes Randall and Hopkirk star Kenneth Cope, renowned playwright Peter Terson, fan favourite comedy dramatist Donald Churchill and Coronation Street contributors Harry Kershaw and Tim Aspinall, this Granada anthology features seven dramas centred on the events unfolding in a typical village hall. Diverse storylines explore the lives and idiosyncrasies of locals and visitors alike, with buried tensions, secret loves and rivalry all rising to the surface in these gently humorous portraits of provincial English life.

This second series sees the village hall hosting a beauty contest with a few surprises, the increasingly ambitious pie-making efforts of two love rivals, the controversial visit of a German brass band, and the final reunion of a wartime battalion. Performers include John Le Mesurier, Zoë Wanamaker, Joan Hickson, Anton Rodgers, Kenneth Cranham, Jan Francis, Ian Hendry, Sue Nicholls and Dinah Sheridan.
