In this episode we get physical and hear how the Greenham and Aldermaston experience gave women confidence in their bodies and voice – subverting stereotypes and challenging societal preconceptions of themselves.
Bridgerton actor Adjoa Andoh reveals how taking part in Embrace the Base as a young woman galvanised her to explore the world of feminist/socialist theatre. Frankie Armstrong, the Godmother of natural singing, describes how communal singing helped bond the Peace Women and how group singing gave them strength on the front line of the battle against nuclear weapons. And Mica May’s time at Greenham helped her push back against societal norms to become the co-founder of Stopcocks, the world's only national company of women plumbers and heating engineers. There’s also some very naughty songs!
