2007 · 1 season

A warm, bittersweet period portrait of sisters finding their way, with sharp domestic tensions beneath the affection.

Overview: Lilies is a British period-drama television series, written by Heidi Thomas, which ran for one eight-episode series in early 2007 on BBC One. The show's tagline was "Liverpool, 1920. Three girls on the edge of womanhood, a world on the brink of change." Due to lower than expected ratings, the BBC did not commission a second series.
