Touched

Touched is set in 1945 during the hundred days between Victory in Europe and Victory in Japan.  It was a time when people began to think they could risk breathing again, hoping again, a time that was not a full war and yet not a full peace.  It was a time when the impossible happened, the impossible horror of Belsen, the overthrow of Churchill, the arrival of a new Labour Government and the impossible in science with the splitting of the atom.
