Vera Sharples, a young woman longing for independence from her overbearing mother, Coronation Street's tyrannical matriarch in a hairnet, Ena Sharples, finds solace in the company of her friend, Lily Longhurst. Lily, who has endured a tragic romance, realizes it's time for her and Vera to take control of their lives. Determined to make a change, the girls join the Land Army and are dispatched to Kent, a place entirely different from the familiar streets they call home.
Life in Kent is a stark contrast to their accustomed existence. The girls are expected to work from dawn to dusk, enduring long hours and frequent air raids that come as a sudden shock. Despite the challenges they face, they gradually adapt to the new surroundings and begin to understand the realities of war.
However, back in Coronation Street, Ena's meddling continues to wreak havoc on their plans. Despite their best efforts to stay focused on their mission, Ena's interference threatens to shatter their dreams and derail their journey. Will the two plucky Lancashire lasses return to Coronation Street with their aspirations intact, or will Ena's meddling ultimately prevail?
