[ENG] Gloomsbury - Series 5 - Episode 6 - Don't Mention The Gooseberry Fool

Vera and Henry are in Paris with Ginny and Lionel - a last-minute irresponsible whirlwind of pleasure before the war starts. But it's not the carefree, scintillating city of their youth. The atmosphere is oppressive - everyone is preparing for war. Nevertheless, Gertrude Klein's parties of the literati beckon, and Hammingaway escorts Henry and Lionel to the Folies Bergere afterwards. Venus reappears briefly with the awful news that Hitler has invaded somewhere or other, it begins with a P, and the foursome scuttle home, arriving on the very evening when Sizzlinghurst is rocked by a massive explosion.
