I love the bathroom scene writing in the way it brings out a segment of the family, it reads like a family photo and builds up the tension because Bridget isn't present but in the bathroom it's like we are looking for a trace, knowing she won't be in there.

“The camp had taken on the guise of a beautiful amorphous female beast caked in mud and cold and song and firelight, nothing bad could happen there” Brilliant. Just brilliant.

The tension and sheer awkwardness at the door had me squirming. It reads as a microcosm of the mass disruption at Greenham. I can imagine scenes like this playing out in 30,000 households across Britain. Something about the contrast between that bathroom and the scene at the fence really brings it home.
