Synopsis

In this story from the cold war (the first cold war …) elderly married couple Hilda and Jim Bloggs have their quiet, simple lives in the English countryside interrupted when they learn of an impending nuclear attack. Not completely understanding the gravity of their situation, Hilda and Jim try to do the correct thing but the official advice is flawed and their preparations laughably inadequate. The story looks at the resilience, love and the strength of human spirit as they put their faith in “Governmental Directives.”
