Introduction
Bomb Girls is a Canadian television drama that debuted on 04 January 2012.

Outline
Writing an article on Women at War, legendary and controversial journalist Dottie Shannon visits the factory – ruffling feathers and shining a light on the stark disparity between women and men’s salaries. After this revelation, Lorna is torn – does she pursue a raise and risk the wrath of her male co-workers, or consent to the status quo “for the good of the war effort”? Gladys runs into Clifford Perry (Tahmoh Penikett) in the most unexpected of places and learns the true extent of the shadow-world of intelligence. Kate is faced with a career conundrum when she’s offered the chance to sing in a live revue – only to discover that it’s a bawdy burlesque show.
