Men in Pain - Season 1

Women will never understand, why face is a matter of life and death to men. They say that life is difficult and that it is particularly difficult if you are a woman. But the 50-year-old HONG TIN-YAM (LAU CHUNG YAN, DAMIAN) finds it equally hard to be a man. YAM was widowed at an early age and was once a single father. Years later he was married to his second wife WONG TAK-KIU (SO YUK WAH, LOUISA) who helped a lot in looking after his son. But YAM is not yet free from trouble – his and his wife’s families have placed a huge burden of responsibility on him and it has never been an easy job to deal with. What really worries him is his only son, SAI-HEI (NG CHEUK HAI, RON), who has grown to be a frivolous young man. HEI has to marry an undergraduate KO FUN (LEUNG CHING KI, TOBY) whom he has made pregnant…

Home Fires

The story of a group of inspirational women in a rural Cheshire community with the shadow of World War II casting a dark cloud over their lives. As the conflict takes hold and separates the women from their husbands, fathers, sons and brothers, the characters find themselves under increasing and extraordinary pressures in a rapidly fragmenting world. By banding together as the Great Paxford Women’s Institute, they help maintain the nation’s fabric in its darkest hour, and discover inner resources that will change their lives forever.
