About Our Town
For the residents of Grover's Corners, daily life proceeds at a predictable pace. The milkman (Stuart Erwin) arrives like clockwork, the neighbors perpetually gossip about nothing and children contemplate their future. Two of these children, George (William Holden) and Emily (Martha Scott), fall in love as adults and, despite last-minute nerves, get married. Their happiness does not last, however, as Emily dies during the birth of a child. Returning as a ghost, she ponders her existence.

Medway: Christmas lights cancelled by council
By Stuart MaisnerBBC News
A council has cancelled all its Christmas Lights for 2023 due to a " challenging financial situation".
Medway Council in Kent said it made the " sad and difficult decision" after identifying a potential overspend of £17m for this financial year.
The Council , which went from Conservative to Labour in May, said The Move would save £75,000.
Council leader Vince Maple said he had " no choice but to make these tough decisions".
A report in September predicted.
Mr Maple said: " We Are making these incredibly difficult decisions to reduce the potential overspend and to ensure we can continue to provide essential services that We Are required to provide by law.
" I Am pleased local ward councillors are still able to fund a Christmas tree in each town. "
" We will continue to work closely with Our Town centre businesses to explore further ways to support them This Christmas . "
Tens of thousands of people flock to the Medway towns every December for the Rochester Dickensian Christmas Festival.
Medway Council said that event, along with a Christmas Market in Rochester Castle Gardens over three weekends, will go ahead as planned.
