Chemist Sidney Stratton (Alec Guinness) is at a crossroads in his career.

- Today on Next 2.0 – We are talking to Jennie Hagerty about her work with homeless women in Erie. Many of us in America avert our eyes and turn away when we encounter homelessness. We judge and write off those who find themselves “unhoused”. Not Jennie Hagerty. Jennie sees these women as beautiful people who just need some help to build healthier lives for themselves and their children.
Jennie Hagerty is an impressive community leader. She has been the executive director of the Mercy Center for Women for the past 8 yrs and she has been growing her organization to serve more women in need. She has won awards for her fund raising and last year was named the 2024 Nonprofit Excellence Awards CEO of the Year.
She is recognized around town, and beyond, as a stellar fund-raiser, which is true, in part, because she passionately believes in the work she does to serve people who are not being well served by the social service systems an...

Aging King George III (Nigel Hawthorne) of England is exhibiting signs of madness, a problem little understood in 1788.
