“A superbly observed story in which relationships are put under huge stress before the feelgood-factor ending. The 2018 version of Ladies’ Day shows that Amanda Whittington has lost none of her talent for creating multi-layered characters that most people can identify with.”

“Has all the makings of a huge hit … with its Yorkshire heart and soul, it has all the warmth of a Calendar Girls or Full Monty.”
Yorkshire Post
“Amanda Whittington's sporting romp Ladies' Day is as much fun as a day at the races and, arguably, better value for money.”
