Love and Marriage
What does love look like after 100 years? Merv met Shirl when he was 17 and calls her the love of his life. Margaret's marriage lasted only a few years, but she was never interested in anyone else. Beryl Raby waited four long years for her fiancé to come home from the war, while Jim and Beryl Burrowes have been together for 73 years.
Not every story follows the same path. Paula sailed to Sydney on a 'Bride Ship' in 1946, Cecile married an older man chosen by her mother, and Marcel speaks openly about his open marriage.
Warm, funny and sometimes heartbreaking, these are love stories with a very long view.
