Tom Oakley (John Thaw) is a cantankerous old man who, at the start of World War II, finds his life irrevocably changed when little Willie Beech (Nick Robinson) is evacuated from London and sent to live with him. Willie is a quiet, sad child with a disturbing past, but through Tom's friendship and attention, Willie's anxieties are smoothed away and a strong bond develops between this unlikely pair.
