The Village (Mùa 2)

The Village is a BBC television drama created and written by Peter Moffat. Consisting of two six-episode series, Moffat envisioned the project as a 42-hour televised epic. The first series covers the years 1914 to 1920; the second continued the story into the 1920s. However, it was not commissioned for a third series. This epic drama charts the turbulent times experienced by one English village throughout the 20th century. One man, Bert Middleton, lives across the entire 100-year period, and his story from boyhood to old age forms the crux of the programme's story, as told through flashbacks as Bert reminisces while being interviewed in the present day by a director making a documentary about the elderly man and his village. Among the events Bert recounts is being smitten at the age of 12 by beautiful Martha Lane, whose family had just arrived in the village, an event that would change his world forever.
