The workers start their journey in 1968, the year that the female strikers of Dagenham bought the Ford factory to a standstill and the question of women's pay into the headlines. Their first task is to produce pink nylon petticoats, but first they need to master the sewing machines and overlockers on the factory floor. The reality of the production line is a rude awakening for many - long monotonous hours with short breaks and few distractions, but even more shocking is the realisation that some of them are being paid less than half the rate of the men on the factory floor.
