Uplifting and heartwarming: drama, courage and romance at Marlows department store this Christmas
For Lily Collins and her fellow shop girls at Marlows Department store, another Christmas with ration books, shortages of goods and staff not to mention a store coping with war damage will be a real challenge.
But the girls rally round and put their worries aside to make this, the hardest wartime Christmas yet, one that their families, and their town, will never forget.
