FLORENCE<br />
We are, we are. And it’s all my stupid<br />
fault.<br />
13 INT. PONTINGS HOUSE. DINING ROOM. DAY.<br />
13<br />
September 1961. A large Victorian villa in north Oxford.<br />
FLORENCE and her mother, VIOLET, and her 14 year old sister,<br />
RUTH are at table. GEOFFREY PONTING’S place is empty. The issue<br />
is FLORENCE’S CND badge. The emotional tone is tense.<br />
VIOLET<br />
... I would have thought it was the<br />
pretentious sort of thing you would<br />
have put behind you after college.<br />
FLORENCE<br />
Well, I like it and I believe in it<br />
and I intend to go on wearing it.<br />
RUTH<br />
Mummy, we talked about this<br />
yesterday...<br />
VIOLET<br />
And what are they saying, your<br />
Aldermaston lot, about this wonderful<br />
wall in Berlin last month. Bit awkward<br />
for the lefties, is it?<br />
FLORENCE<br />
We hate it. Everyone hates it.<br />
VIOLET<br />
An entire country turned into a prison<br />
camp, with the Soviet’s blessing. A<br />
proud day for socialism!<br />
FLORENCE is trying not to rise to this.<br />
FLORENCE<br />
How was school?<br />
RUTH<br />
All right.
