I Grandi Magazzini Department Store (1939)

Documentary going behind the famous gold-and-green facade of the London retailer, to explore the store's million square feet of shopping space, as well as the secrets of its success. Viewed as a uniquely British institution for more than 150 years, items on sale range from precious gems and high-class toys to designer fashions and food. Such notoriety goes both ways however, and the store was targeted by the IRA on two occasions. Harrods was linked with further tragedy in 1997, when its owner's son, Dodi Al-Fayed, was killed in a car crash alongside Princess Diana.

For Eve, Irene, Betty, and Rosemary, working at the exclusive Heyworth's department store in Cambridge is a dream come true. Once the girls step inside the elegant building, the hardships of their own lives are temporarily forgotten.
