Posting Letters to the Moon is a romantic, funny and very touching portrait of life during the second World War, featuring readings of letters between Oscar nominated actress Celia Johnson (Brief Encounter) and her explorer and writer husband Peter Fleming (brother of James Bond creator Ian Fleming) posted to India and the Far East during the war working for Military Intelligence.
The letters are read by their daughter Lucy Fleming (Love Sarah, The Archers) and her husband Simon Williams (Upstairs Downstairs, The Archers, EastEnders), and give an insight into a young mother’s life coping during the war and tell of Celia Johnson’s experience of filming with Noël Coward, David Lean and her thoughts while making the classic film Brief Encounter in 1945.
