Set on an island off Jersey,
Falcon Bay is one of the world’s most popular soap operas. As dramatic as the waves that crash on its surrounding shores, this private island is a volcanic eruption of personalities, raging hormones and a battle of the sexes.
There’s a feisty feast of females – ironically, together but also against each other. There’s an eternal power struggle between top boss Madeline and an array of colourful characters – director Farrah, star Catherine and producer Amanda.

Elinor Lipman reads from Rachel To The Rescue
By
Rachel Klein is sacked from her job at the White House after she sends an email criticising the president.
As she is escorted off the premises, she is hit by a speeding car – a car driven by a person the press will discreetly call ‘a personal friend of the President’.

Rachel’s recovery is soothed by comically doting parents, matchmaking room-mates and a new job as aide to a journalist whose books aim to defame the President. She also finds unexpected love at the local wine store.
