Episode 1 of 4

It's 1938: GPO man Frank Gunwallow returns to St Martin's to check up on the Isles of Scilly post office. Stars Joseph Kloska. From 2015.

It's 1938 with talk of looming war.

General Post Office man Frank Gunwallow is back to see if all is still in order at St Martin's Post Office.

The return of Christopher William Hill's comedy set on a remote island of the Isles of Scilly.

War seems inevitable, but the islanders have their own battles to contend with, stuck on a rock flung 27 miles out into the Atlantic with only their natural grit and gallows humour to see them through.
