Overview
Norman Walker's Sheffield-set drama. Steelworker Walter (Wilfrid Lawson) rises through the ranks until he becomes manager of three steel mills, but ruthless ambition overwhelms him. He antagonises his fellow workers and alienates his smart-witted and compassionate wife Ginger (Betty Stockfeld), who is drawn to the cultured Alan (John Stuart). Also showing is 'The Ten Year Plan' (1945, dir Lewis Gilbert, 17min): Charles Hawtrey on the utilitarian wonder of the steel-built ‘prefab’.
