Additional InformationSet in 1940s Ireland, Elizabeth (Elisabeth Dermot-Walsh) falls pregnant by a handsome actor at the tender age of 19 and gets married off to a middle-aged widower. He has a ready-made family and lives on the remote but breathtaking Beara Peninsula. This hugely successful TV drama follows Elizabeth's often traumatic journey as she comes to terms with being a mother and wife, outcast in her rural and ever-rainy purgatory. But one day at the village dance she encounters "the dancer" and her short tumultuous life takes another turn.
