Moving from nearby Newcastle, Marion takes a job at Marshalls to support her sickly children Stella and Ray.
Passing herself off as recently deceased husband "Davy" in order to get a decent wage, her co-workers are deeply suspicious. Reserved Marion becomes close to Fraser and Edie, who seem less hostile than the rest of the factory.
