At the height of a TB epidemic, Lydia Robinson lives on her remote North Yorkshire estate, with four children and a preacher husband. Mr Robinson has decreed that the family isolate themselves, in fear of the sickness.
Their only company? Gloomy Anne Brontë, governess to the children.
That is, until Anne’s dissolute brother, Branwell, arrives…

Mrs Robinson's name and story partly inspired the film, The Graduate.

Helen Cross’s five-part original fiction is read by Anne-Marie Duff.
Producers: Fay Lomas and Mair Bosworth
