It's time to take their first steps onto the dancefloor!

Pearl sells fish and chips at the Pleasure Beach by day, but on a Saturday night she partners her best friend Bernie at the Tower Ballroom. As their dancing improves, might friendship turn to something more?
Joy lost her family in the Blitz and feels alone in the world. But when dashing Tommy invites her to dance, could this be her chance to find the life and love she's always dreamed of?
It may be wartime, but can the magic of the ballroom help our girls dance their cares away?
