Sean Bean presents a series exploring the ways in which wartime experiences have filtered down through the generations.

At the end of the Second World War many soldiers returning home married and a spike in births followed. But not all of these marriages were happy ones or survived the harsh realities of post war Britain. Sean Bean discovers that while physical wounds of war heal, emotional wounds can remain open.

Just before D-Day, Beryl and George married. Two months later, their daughter, Anne Godden was born. Anne always felt her father resented her, but it was not until her adult life that she found out why.

Across the Atlantic in Canada, Barbara Sherman's parents also married at the end of the Second World War. However, two years later, after Barbara and her sister were born, her father Sonny Sherman left the family to live with another woman.

Although separated by thousands of miles Beryl and Anne discover they share a very similar legacy of war.
