About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

Autumn 1941, and as female conscription looms, three women arrive at the Bell Works Factory in Hucknall to work on the Spitfire production line.

Lily soon realises her real dream is to pilot the planes; Edna longs to be reunited with her evacuee daughter, but soon discovers she has a much bigger problem; and Jeannie fears the worst after weeks of no news from her fiancé.

Despite all the heartache, with a bit of festive cheer and 'can do' attitude, The Engine Girls will pull together and do all they can to ensure Britain's safe for the New Year.

A beautiful story and piece of history from just before I was born.

A lovely story, but the voice of the narrator was to old to be able to picture the young characters which spoilt the overall experience sadly

Great story, but …
