'Faith, Hope and Glory' returns for its fourth series on Radio 4. Three families are bound together by the fate of one baby lost and found at Tilbury Docks in 1946. And now a new generation of our characters begin to take their place in the rapidly changing Britain of the 1960s.
Hope has re-married, to Rodney. Together they are raising both her own children, Sheila and James, and Jean, ex-husband Jim’s daughter from another relationship. But she is hiding a secret from Rodney; the guilt at agreeing to send her first-born away.
