Summary:
Double bill of British family dramas. 'The Railway Children' (1970), based on E. Nesbit's classic children's novel, follows the fortunes of three Edwardian children whose father is wrongly jailed for treason. Exiled with their mother to a life of genteel poverty on the Yorkshire Moors, they are soon drawn to the railway at the bottom of the garden, and all kinds of adventures. In 'The Railway Children Return' (2022), following the outbreak of the Second World War, Lily (Beau Gadsdon), Pattie (Eden Hamilton) and Ted (Zac Cudby) are evacuated from their home in Manchester and sent to a rural Yorkshire village where they encounter retired headteacher and former evacuee Bobbie (Jenny Agutter). As they explore the countryside with their new friend Thomas (Austin Haynes), the children befriend local stationmaster Richard (John Bradley) and come to the aid of an American soldier who claims to be on a secret mission.
