Series. We’re back with a group of fun-loving young American girls who exploded into the tightly corseted London of the 1870s, setting hearts racing and kicking off an Anglo-American culture clash.

All the girls have been forced to grow up and now have to fight to be heard, as they wrestle with themes consuming all women of any age, no matter what year it is.

Starring Kristine Froseth, Alisha Boe, Josie Totah, Aubri Ibrag and Imogen Waterhouse. Watch the trailer.
