It is 1940, the German army is advancing and Britain is bracing itself for the frighteningly real prospect of invasion. For the women left behind, the separation from their menfolk becomes ever more painful as the Battle of Britain rages in the skies overhead and the first bombs start to fall. Blending the highest quality production values with powerful, touching storylines, this new season will see the remarkable members of the Great Paxford Women's Institute discovering inner resources and new-found freedoms in this time of crisis that will change their lives forever.
