1914: Mr and Mrs Ramsay, their eight children and an array of guests are on the Isle of Skye for the summer.

Just before the First World War, Mr and Mrs Ramsay, their eight children and an array of guests are on the Isle of Skye for the summer.

Despite Mr Ramsay's prediction of bad weather, Young James is determined to get to the Lighthouse.
