Keep carefully the family alongside one another - that's what her old mum always said. Set up and shut up. And that is what everybody else do around there. Essex, 1959. Flo makes her money as a scrubber, cleaning the cruise lines and thinking of every day when she might sail away from her life in the Dwellings, the squalid tenements of Tilbury docks. Then your Blundell family are evicted from their home. Fred, Flo's man, finds work at Monday's, a utopian manufacturing plant town. Suddenly it looks like everything is on the up for Flo Blundell and her children. Even Jeanie, Flo's sulking teenage little princess, appears to be thawing a little in her shiny new surroundings. However when Flo's abusive man, Fred, starts enjoying again, he jeopardises the family's chance to flee poverty for good. Flo is faced with a terrible decision. Must she fight to keep her family alongside one another? Or could she shoot for the life span of her dreams - the sort of life she might have when her dispatch comes in?
