Description

We three Fossils vow to make history because we don't have any history but we do have a name and if we put that name into history we'll earn lots of money and we'll be really famous and we'll fix the roof and no one will say it's because of our grandfathers.

In a crumbling house full of dinosaur bones and fossils, three adopted sisters - Pauline, Petrova and Posy - are learning who they want to be.

Under the watchful eyes of Nana and their guardian Sylvia, together with some unlikely lodgers, the Fossil sisters fight to pursue their passions. In a world that wasn't built for women with big ambitions, they must forge a future, keep their family together, and maybe learn a dance or two along the way.
