Hi, Yorkshire Television followed Hannah for about six months, called a WInter too Many (1989) , I did manage to find a really low quality version on the internet, but Amazon are selling VHS tapes.

I live in Appersett and researching the hamlet, which house did you visit?

I will pass on your details to Bill, but I do know it was a fair number of years ago.

Something has just shocked me ... I searched youtube for Hannah Hauxwell programmes, and there were many made - but nothing but a few short clips were found ... I find this strange. I wonder if there is some kind of legal issue where youtube is prevented from airing Hanna's life stories ???

Where in Appersett did you meet the gentleman?
