On 31 August 1939, days before Britain declares war on Germany, journalist Walter Burns is preoccupied by conflicts closer to home in Chicago.  A notorious murderer has escaped from police custody - Walter could be on the verge of covering the biggest story of his career.  Meanwhile, his  ex-wife and star reporter, Hildy Johnson, makes an unexpected return to the press room  in order to deliver some startling news of her own.  As Walter tries to win Hildy back, can she  resist chasing one last scoop?  A stylish adaption of the classic 1940’s screwball comedy.
