[edit] Plot

This period sitcom, set in 1902, was a variation of The Rag Trade, that was also written by Chesney and Wolfe. Barbara Windsor, who also starred in The Rag Trade, played Millie, a cockney women who led the women in a milliner's shop. The storylines focused around the conflict between the female workers and the management, Mr Harcourt and his apprentince Albert. Reflecting the spirit of Britain in the 1960s, the women adopted a new fiesty spirit no seen in The Rag Trade. The series failed to attract the same popularity as The Rag Trade, and was decommissioned after the first series.
