What was this called?

[hellymelly]

Period drama, a few years ago, set at the end of the first World War, about sisters, one of them starts a corset business, one of them marries or is about to marry a soldier whose um..equipment has been blown up. Any ideas?

The House Of Eliott?

No, not that, not as long ago, and i think there were three sisters, and maybe a brother, parents etc. I didn't see it all, and was just choosing some tv DVDs on amazon when i thought of it.

I vaguely remember it but not the name ((helpful))

Was it Lilies?

I was just going to say Lilies - but ItsAllGoing beat me to it.

Oh Gawd, apart from the prospective husband's lack of tackle I can't remember all that much. One sister had curly red hair, she was the corset making one, and had women visiting her to try on the corsets. Lord I sound insane don't I? Just asked DH if he remembered but he is now weeping laughing that all that has stuck in my mind is the (very unfortunate phrase coming up) blown off knob. I think it was a novel, and that it was on tv on Sunday nights.

Oh I cross posted, YES, LILIES, thank you. I can sleep now, that was driving me potty.

Definitely Lilies.

Check out ItsAllGoing's wiki link - it's got a synopsis of all the episodes to help jog your memory.

I think I only saw two or three of them. For some reason I missed the later ones.
