โฆ Synopsis
1942. All across Britain, people's lives have been altered by the war, and for the girls of Woolworths it's no different.
Sarah, Maisie and Freda, brought together by their jobs, now cling to the shop as a refuge. But outside of Woolies, they live in fear of what each day will bring. Alan, Sarah's husband, will soon be called up once more as a member of the Air Force, while Freda's dear brother is in the Navy and fighting his war at sea. Maisie, meanwhile, longs for a child and a settled family life but is determined to do her bit for the war effort.
As the year draws to a close, the girls must rely on their friendship more than ever before to navigate the dark days that lie ahead . . .
Christmas at Woolworths is the heartfelt sequel to Elaine Everest's bestselling debut The Woolworths Girls.
