In an effort to help housewives with food rationing, a BBC radio program called The Kitchen Front is putting on a cooking contest--and the grand prize is a job as the program's first-ever female co-host. For four very different women, winning the contest presents a crucial chance to change their lives.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor a young widow, it's a chance to pay off her husband's debts and keep a roof over her children's heads.

And for a trained chef, it's a chance to challenge the men at the top of her profession.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThese four women are giving the competition their all--evebn if that sometimes means bending the rules.
