- The Mill. [videorecording] / by Griffiths, Ciaran.; Hawes, James.; Hayes, Kerrie.; Lucas, Holly.; BFS Entertainment & Multimedia Limited.;
Ciaran Griffiths, Kerrie Hayes, Holly Lucas.Based on a powerful true story, The Mill is a drama set in England in 1833, a time when industry is sweeping children as young as nine into the factories and mills to work 12-hour days. Injustice and suppression are the norm, but the world is changing and one feisty young girl takes a stand against the mill owners and their lackeys who rule the children's tired and hungry lives. Inside, Robert Greg (Jamie Draven), the mill owner's son, is taking over the business and modernising ruthlessly, while outside, civil disobedience is on the rise. Times are changing for better or worse and the balance of power is about to fall into the hands of a young girl called Esther Price (Kerrie Hayes).PG.DVD ; widescreen presentation ; Dolby digital.- Subjects: Greg, Robert; Greg, Samuel, 1758-1834; Quarry Bank Mill; Historical television programs.; Television programs.; Textile factories; Textile industry; Textile workers;

- The gown : a novel of the royal wedding / by Robson, Jennifer,1970-author.;
Includes bibliographical references."London, 1947: Besieged by the harshest winter in living memory, burdened by onerous shortages and rationing, the people of postwar Britain are enduring lives of quiet desperation despite their nation's recent victory. Among them are Ann Hughes and Miriam Dassin, embroiderers at the famed Mayfair fashion house of Norman Hartnell. Together they forge an unlikely friendship, but their nascent hopes for a brighter future are tested when they are chosen for a once-in-a-lifetime honor: taking part in the creation of Princess Elizabeth's wedding gown. Toronto, 2016: More than half a century later, Heather Mackenzie seeks to unravel the mystery of a set of embroidered flowers, a legacy from her late grandmother. How did her beloved Nan, a woman who never spoke of her old life in Britain, come to possess the priceless embroideries that so closely resemble the motifs on the stunning gown worn by Queen Elizabeth II at her wedding almost seventy years before? And what was her Nan's connection to the celebrated textile artist and holocaust survivor Miriam Dassin?" -- Amazon.com.- Subjects: Historical fiction.; Elizabeth II, Queen of Great Britain, 1926-; Philip, Prince, consort of Elizabeth II, Queen of Great Britain, 1921-; Marriages of royalty and nobility; Embroidery; Textile industry; Wedding costume; Grandparent and child; Family secrets;
