Annabel Crabb and the Ferrone Family return to immerse themselves in the past. The Ferrone's are transported back to the 1900s where they cook, eat and live through stringent gender roles, school and Federation.
The decade kicks off with a cooking fad from Britain that reportedly caused divorce! By 1914 life is an emotionally charged test of resilience for the Ferrones as they experience the Australian spirit confronted by war.
The Ferrones roar into the 1920s ready to kick up their heels. This is the decade of decadence where they finally have a car! However, while Carol remains stuck in the kitchen, Sienna finds a job in a department store.
The Ferrones enter the 1930s with trepidation. As the Great Depression bites, jobs are lost, food is scarce and offal is back on the menu. However, there are a few treats including a trip to the movies with David Stratton.
In a decade born of war, the Ferrones face more uncertain times. Julian enlists, but Peter is punished for his Italian heritage. Carol and Sienna swap their aprons for pants and go to work for the war effort.
