Memoirs
Description
Their parents worked as miners and lace workers, but by the mid-twentieth century new opportunities beckoned for the children of Nottingham.
Pauline, Betty, Alice, Albert, Derek and Sid worked at the Great British companies Raleigh, Boots and Players. Their new lives took them from cigarette packing, sewing machine piecework and selling rubber ‘prophylactics’ to places their parents could not have dreamt of – selling lingerie, working on the Queen Elizabeth and even becoming a director at Boots.
Following the loves and losses of six Midlands lads and lasses, The Players is the true story of new lives, new pride and a new Britain.
