Bringing the Keep Fit movement vividly to life in 1940s' London,
Pam Evans' family saga will inspire and enthral anyone who has ever
dared to dream of a better life. In the middle of a party to
celebrate the Silver Jubilee of King George V in 1935, Mollie
Fisher's good-for-nothing husband walks out on his wife and baby
girl. Luckily, Mollie has a loving family to turn to for help.
Mollie's mother, Marge, is delighted to look after baby Esme while
Mollie goes out to work. Meanwhile, her nan, Nora, encourages
Mollie to join a local keep fit class, which opens her eyes to a
whole new world. Determined to better herself, Mollie qualifies as
a fitness instructor and starts to run her own classes for the
local community, where she befriends a group of women she would
never have known existed. But with the outbreak of the Second World
War and the ever-present danger of losing her loved ones in the
London bombings, it takes courage for Mollie to stand on her own
two feet...
