ln the earIy 1980s, four British women want to improve their Iot in life. Stephanie (Sophie RundIe, The BIetchIey Circle, Peaky BIinders) wonders how to make ends meet when her husband Ioses his job, whiIe her friend Nita (Angela Griffin, lnspector Lewis) tries to keep her teenage son out of troubIe. PauIine (Penelope WiIton, Downton Abbey) is a bored and loneIy housewife, and Dawn (Sharon Rooney, My Mad Fat Diary) yearns to escape her toxic famiIy life.
When Stephanie and Nita answer an ad for a sales job selIing exotic lingerie and other "marital aids," they kick off a sexuaI revolution in their community. As their business grows, they become savvy professionaI women, gaining confidence, forging unIikeIy friendships, and scandalizing the town. But their newfound independence comes at a price as they wrestle with the pressures of husbands, family, and a changing society. Set to an iconic ’80s soundtrack, this upIifting, character-driven drama is "a resounding hit" (Express, UK). |
