Women at War (11 January 2001) - Lyn and Kirstie join the Women's Voluntary Service and work in the war industry.

The family suffers from air-raids, sleep deprivation, and bomb damage before learning that the war is over. They also listen to radio stories about the liberation of Bergen-Belsen concentration camp.

Six months later, the Hymers reflect on their time in 1940s House.
