A new six-part ITV period drama will follow a group of inspirational women living in rural Cheshire on the eve of World War II.
Inspired by the Julie Summers book Jambusters, the series explores how members of the Women's Institute banded together as the nation faced its darkest hour.
“The women are real and engaging and have fantastic spirit and attitude,” says ITV Director of Drama Steve November.
“With World War II on the horizon, multiple strands of plot interweave to create a period drama full of jeopardy and intrigue, but also great humanity and modernity.”
