Synopses

The Bomb Girls

Lillian, Emily and Alice are each called to register for compulsory war work, putting plans and ambitions on hold. Elsie sees an opportunity to leave her brutal father, while Agnes has her own reasons for leaving London. Brought together at a munitions factory in a Lancashire mill town, the five women face an uncertain future and find friendship as they share grief and joy.

The Bomb Girls Secrets

As war spreads across Europe, Kitty leaves Ireland for England to work in a munitions factory, drawn by the money and needing to support her baby, Billy, back in Dublin. In Lancashire she makes friends, including Gladys, Violet and Edna at the local chippy. She works by day and plays in the Bomb Girls Swing Band by night, while keeping a secret that becomes harder to protect after a letter from home.

The Bomb Girl Brides

Maggie is set on making her wedding day glamorous, even while working on the factory floor. Julia, who had hoped to attend Oxford University, finds factory life intimidating. Alongside the other women in a Lancashire mill town munitions factory, they contend with rationing, dangerous work and unfamiliar situations as they try their best at work and in love.

The Code Girls

In 1941, Walsingham Hall is taken over by the Army, forcing the Walsingham family upstairs. Ava and Maudie arrive to become code girls and break German encryptions, but are instead assigned to the kitchens. As they do their duty and form new friendships, romance seems possible, while Lord Walsingham is hiding something and the girls begin to realise the country’s safety may be in their hands.

The Wartime Midwives

In 1939, Mary Vale, a Mother & Baby Home on the edge of the Lake District, offers sanctuary to unmarried women. New arrivals include waitress Emily and young Isla, while Nurse Ada and Sister Anne support the mothers and deliver their babies. With war looming, an unforgiving Matron and Captain Percival have other ideas, and the women at Mary Vale must pull together to protect themselves and their babies.
