But it's the early 1960s and her all-male team at Hastings Research Institute take a very unscientific view of equality.

But her revolutionary approach to cooking, fuelled by scientific and rational commentary, grabs the attention of a nation.

Soon, a legion of overlooked housewives find themselves daring to change the status quo. One molecule at a time.
