Shaw Media has picked up six one-hour episodes of Bomb Girls, a homegrown drama about Second World War women at work in a munitions factory, from Muse Entertainment and Back Alley Films.

The drama is based on a script by Michael MacLennan.

No word on where Shaw Media will debut Bomb Girls in its channel lineup.

The Canadian drama will be formally unwrapped next Tuesday at Shaw Media’s Upfront presentation in Toronto.
