The Welsh Girl |
This was disappointing and never got going. It centres on a Welsh girl in the Second World War who crosses paths with drunken British soldiers and a German POW. There was another (very peripheral) storyline about Rudolf Hess and a German refugee interviewing him for British intelligence, but it was hard to see the relevance. Predictable in places, unbelievable in others, it was all a bit of a drag - I struggled to keep going.
