EXT. FIELD - AFTERNOON Linda sits in her car at her field in St. Peters, watching her dog Tarbra running around the field. It is a bit overcast, but not an unpleasant day. Linda picks up her tape recorder and goes into the field and sits down on an old bench car seat and starts talking into the tape recorder. LINDA God, I'll never forget that! FADE TO FLASHBACK Eleven year old Linda, Rene, Cecil, Linda's sister, ANN (17 years old), her brother, ROGER and her Uncle Harry are sitting at the morning room table, eating breakfast. Linda is sitting at the right hand side of her father who is at the head of the table with his back to the window. Ann is opposite her alongside Roger, Uncle Harry is sitting next to Linda and her mother is at the other end of the table. RENE (annoyed) Well, get on and eat it then! Linda looks definitely at her mother. LINDA I hate breakfast! CECIL Come on Lindy Lou, at least try a bit. Linda smiles at her father and plays around with her food. She puts a small bit into her mouth. LINDA Okay, Dad, I'll try. CECIL (smiling) That's a good girl. RENE Stop playing with it! CECIL Leave her alone Rene...at least she's eating some of it. RENE (smiling at Ann & Roger) Well, I bet you're looking forward to the Pantomime. ROGER Yes Mummy, I am. Linda is sneaking food under the table to her dog that is sitting at her fee. Uncle Harry notices. ANN (V.O.) Cinderella...it's my favorite! Uncle Harry smiles.
