It is 1953. At the Coronation party at the Palace Hotel, two lives are about to change forever. Claudia - 16, beautiful, fragile and an outsider in this small seaside town - finds herself talking to Michael, also a newcomer, who is struggling with a rocky marriage. Their instant, irresistible attraction to one another will have consequences which stretch far into the future. Against the ever changing backdrop of events ranging from grey post-war austerity to technicolour rock and roll, from Suez to the summer of love, from Bill Haley to The Beatles, from the buttoned-up glamour of the 50s to the rebellious freedom of the 60s, "The Time of Our Lives" is an intensely passionate love story and a captivating chronicle of the times.
