Laura (Celia Johnson) and Alec (Trevor Howard) meet by chance in a railway station when Alec, a doctor, comes to Laura's aid after a bit of coal dust becomes lodged in her eye. Their first meeting is innocent enough, as is their next when they run into each other in the street. After a third chance encounter when they share a table at a cafe, they can no longer deny their mutual attraction. Both are happily married. Neither is looking for an affair, but they find themselves helplessly drawn together hopelessly and passionately in love.

Celia Johnson has become so inextricably linked to the part of Laura in Brief Encounter (1945) that it is sometimes surprising to see her in other roles. Much of her career was in theatre, and since her acting is in any case quietly self-effacing she seems to invite her own invisibility. One only has to compare her role as the English suburban rose in Brief Encounter... with that of the respectable working-class mam in This Happy Breed (1944), made the year before, to recognise the skill and range she brought to her film performances.

In 1929 Celia was going out with an actor called Rupert Hart-Davis, who first introduced her to his friend from Eton: Peter Fleming, in Oxford. Rupert upset Celia by leaving her for Peggy Ashcroft, whom he later married. Celia met Peter again two years later and the pair exchanged secret love letters. He was the literary editor of The Spectator, son of an MP for Henley and excellent army officer killed in 1917, whose obituary his colleague Winston Churchill wrote. Peter was one of four brothers, including Ian, who later wrote Chitti-Chitti-Bang-Bang and a series of popular spy novels. Their family was very rich (Dundee jute), owned a lot of land, and founded a London bank, as well as inventing the investment trust.
