Synopsis: | Grasmere, April 1842 - young Dora Wells has come to Rydal Mount to 'paint the views' and visit the famous poet William Wordsworth, but he is too engrossed in his poetry. In an upstairs room, Dora encounters the 'exquisite' Dorothy - now a dementia sufferer. The ensuing half hour is full of laughter and tears as, together with Dot, her faithful carer, Miss Wordsworth relives her memories, revealing herself to be more than simply 'Wordsworth's Sister'. | |||||
