00:00 We bought this farm in 1998, just after I left the army.
00:03 23 years ago.
00:04 And here we are, another war.
00:06 I have a message for all who have enrolled in the Women's Land Army.
00:13 I'm Stella.
00:14 I'm Ag.
00:14 Hello, I'm Prue.
00:15 Every acre cultivated means more food for our people.
00:19 You have released great battalions of men who now fight for the land which formerly they towed.
00:26 Their task is now in your hands.
00:28 Age! Age! Got it girls! Farm's a-way!
00:31 I spent six weeks at training learning how to milk a cow.
00:34 I'm an hairdresser, you see. That's my proper trade.
00:37 We know where to come if one of our cows needs a perm.
00:39 They don't like us.
00:40 I know it's only my opinion, but it'll take some changing.
00:43 Do you know I ran away to join a circus?
00:45 Whoa, whoa, whoa! Watch out!
00:47 I'll get some help.
00:48 Don't leave me!
00:49 Where's Prue?
00:50 Where? Where? Show me where!
00:52 Undo it, we've got him! Just undo it!
00:55 Undo it!
00:55 I'm in need of assistance, Joe.
00:57 It's an emergency.
00:59 Fornication? With him?
01:01 Why not?
01:02 He's unspeakable.
01:03 What's that got to do with it?
01:05 There are thousands of virgins, it's not just you.
01:07 Ask Joe. I'd recommend him, definitely.
01:09 I wondered if you wouldn't mind popping up and, well, giving me a bit of a go.
01:13 Come on, join in, get them off.
01:15 Do you disapprove terribly, Stella?
01:16 No, Ag. I think it's probably best to do it while you can.
01:19 My fiancé, well, he's in the navy and he's got some leave coming up.
01:22 I could have been an officer.
01:23 Then why didn't you?
01:24 Because there was work to be done!
01:26 Where are we going?
01:27 He's an air raid!
01:29 Is that where your Philip is?
01:31 I wanted to go!
01:33 You want to fly, Joe?
01:34 Safer on the ground.
01:36 I'd like to fly.
01:37 Must be wonderful to fly.
01:39 He doesn't need to cut in.
01:40 There he is.
01:41 Excuse me.
01:42 Don't I know you? Aren't you the Petra Queen of Nile?
01:45 How perceptive you are.
01:47 Gramercy Pictures proudly presents
01:51 the story of three young women
01:54 and the war that would change their lives.
01:56 Don't let go of what you want.
01:58 Stella!
01:59 When you find it, you hold it.
02:01 I love you, Stella.
02:02 Hold on to it, Joe!
02:04 The friendships that would stay with them forever.
02:07 To all of us.
02:07 Hip hip!
02:08 Hurrah!
02:09 And the loves that would change their hearts.
02:12 I love you, Joe.
02:13 I love you.
02:15 The Land Girls.
