synopsis
British television's adaptation of Catherine Cookson's novel, The Moth was set during the Edwardian era. Jack Davenport starred as carpenter Robert Bradley, who found himself in the employ of the wealthy and aristocratic Thorman family. When Robert fell in love with the beautiful Sarah Thorman (Juliet Aubrey), he ran up against the stern opposition of the parents -- not only Sarah's mother and father, but also his own. The Moth was presented in three 50-minute segments by Tyne Tees television in 1997.
