Many couples are separated and children evacuated, not knowing when, or if, they will ever be reunited. THE GIRLS THEY LEFT BEHIND In 1940 the neighbours of April Grove are close-knit, patriotic and proud - but the onset of the Blitz puts their loyalties and strong family ties to the test as never before.
