Description
xDuring the First World War, Alice McDonald escapes domestic service to work in the dockyard and play football with her friend Tilly in the Dockyard Stores Ladies team.
Her former teacher Hattie West agrees to train the girls and Alice meets the stores' manager John Phillips.
Meanwhile, loner Victor Banks is attracted to Alice. When she repels his advances he attacks her. The assault only ends when Reggie Symonds enters the stores and Victor runs off.
Alice complains to her supervisor and the police are called. But the magistrate throws out the case. Hattie decides to take justice into her own hands.
Alice's mother Maggie argues with Victor's mother, who discovers that Maggie's cousin Ivy has been jailed for prostitution. Victor starts stalking Alice again but Reggie begins to accompany her, and romance blossoms.
The King announces a visit to the dockyard where the women plan to humiliate Victor. As a result, Victor is banished to Pembroke.
But more tragedy is on the way...
