    Synopsis:
    John Thaw (Inspector Morse, Kavanagh QC) stars as the widowed and cantankerous Tom Oakley in this charming film adaptation of the prize-winning children`s novel by Michelle Mogorian.

    When the Second World War is declared, Tom finds that his quiet life in the village of Little Weirwold is set to change when nine-year-old Willie Beech (Nick Robinson) is evacuated from London and billeted on him. Willie is a quiet, sad child with a deprived and disturbing past, but he slowly begins to flourish under the care of `Mister Tom` and enjoys an idyllic village life.

    Gradually a strong bond of friendship develops between the two. Then, quite suddenly, Willie is summoned back to the terrors of Blitz-torn London by his mother (Annabelle Apsion). Tom is left feeling lonely and wondering if he will ever see his dear friend again...
