Dame Jenni Murray


They were famous queens, unrecognised visionaries, great artists and trailblazing politicians. They all pushed back boundaries and revolutionised our world. Jenni Murray presents the history of Britain as you've never seen it before, through the lives of twenty-one women who refused to succumb to the established laws of society, whose lives embodied hope and change, and who still have the power to inspire us today.

This talk was recorded at an Oldie Literary Lunch at Simpson's-in-the-Strand on July 17th 2018.
