Lilies On The Land

This piece charts the personal journeys of five women who sign up to the Women's Land Army during World War II - determined to work endless backbreaking hours on farms across the country in a bid to do their best for the War Effort.

Based on 150 letters and interviews with original Land Girls, along with songs from the period, Lilies on the Land is a revealing, funny and wonderfully moving portrait of some of Britain's pluckiest unsung heroes.
