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 writing is amazing as always, but honestly, Eleanor I could listen to you, read the phone book!

Ok ok! I don’t do much listening over here, but I’m going to heed Ben’s words and try!

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.
