Based on a true story, Only Bloody Lovely tells of one family's experiences of some of Sheffield's history of disasters and the ensuing impact and distress on the family. During his national service Harold Kingswood was stationed at Pembroke Dock, a flying boat station in Wales. At the end of the war he came home to Sheffield to start his new life as husband and family man. However, the Hillsborough disaster, the Falklands war, the Sheffield floods and the Sheffield blitz all tore away the family's 'happy ever after' dream. But that's just for fairy tales, anyway ... isn't it?
