Backs To The Land - The Complete First Series

This popular Anglia sitcom focuses on the experiences of three Women's Land Army volunteers with very different backgrounds. Dizzy debutante Daphne Finch-Beauchamp, cheerful Cockney Jenny Dabb and sensible Jewish girl Shirley Bloom find themselves in the Norfolk village of Clayfield, sharing a hasty education in agricultural matters, more than a few mishaps, and a little romance along the way.

Originally broadcast in 1977, Backs To The Land features a memorable theme song, sung by Anne Shelton, one of Britain's most popular and inspiring wartime entertainers and beloved by Allied forces around the world.

First released: Monday 28th June 2010
