In this much requested sequel to ‘The Lights Came on For Marcia Duncan’, the family revelations continue to surprise all. Having capsized a rather dodgy boat and given birth in the middle of the River Ellis, Marcia Duncan did not greet parenthood with delight. Hampered by learning difficulties and immobility, our favourite character accepts the world as it is and tries her very best. With never-ending support from her best friend Molly, she has successfully, (well almost), managed to raise her daughter Tanya into her eleventh year. Molly, however, is still harbouring dark secrets and as events unfold, these will inevitably surface, invading the blissful unawareness that prevents Marcia from seeing her friend as she truly is. It is here our story resumes, as life in the small terrace council house in Chalksbury bumbles along. One would say without incident, but, of course, as we all know Marcia and her accident-prone comical antics, this is just not going to happen!
