A letter has finally been delivered to its destination – more than a century after it was written…
In 1916, Christabel Mennell writes a letter of apology to Katie Marsh. It is finally delivered in 2021 and becomes a global news sensation.
Travelling from Bath to London, via two world wars and two pandemics, the unreceived letter of apology sparked people’s imaginations, opening up a fascinating mystery:
What was the apology for?
Who were the women writing to one another?
What became of them?
After a year of speculation and research, Good Wolf peels back the layers of time to reveal a funny, moving story of history, war, faith, friendship and porridge oats.
