The story

In 1970, writer Alan Bennett moves into a wealthy suburb of Camden. Soon afterwards, he meets Miss Mary Shepherd, an irritable, eccentric, unsanitary, and religious homeless woman living in an old Bedford van, who squats outside multiple houses in Bennett's street of Gloucester Crescent. Social workers frequently check in with her, and other neighbours on the street frequently bring Miss Shepherd presents or food.
