Summary

Bitter rivals fight for control of the Women's Institute in a rural English town as it struggles with the onset of World War II. Separated from husbands, fathers, sons and brothers for years at a time, some permanently, they find themselves under extraordinary pressures in a rapidly fragmenting world.

Notes

Inspired by the book Jambusters by Julie Summers.

Originally broadcast as individual episodes on ITV in Great Britain and on PBS as episodes of the series Masterpiece in 2015.
