Comment
When a woman's husband is press ganged into the navy she has to bring up her son alone, cope with cholera and her son going off to sea with her lover in search of herring off the north coast of Scotland. This is a dour and gritty post war British drama. The direction fails to build either tension or character interest and the acting is staid.
