SIM Ep 276 Pod 85: Musical women, medical women and maniacal laughter

This week Mick and Jen catch up with star of the stage and screen Jodie Prenger, currently touring in the National Theatre’s production of Shelagh Delaney’s taboo-breaking play, A Taste of Honey (https://www.nationaltheatre.org.uk/shows/a-taste-of-honey-uk-tour), to talk about mimicking everyone from your nan to Liza Minnelli. Hannah chats to tour guide and living history practitioner Ailsa Clarke to learn about the Edinburgh Seven – the first women to train to be doctors in the UK (https://www.edinburghmuseums.org.uk/whats-on/edinburgh-seven-0). There’s no records and new records in Jenny off the Blocks, Double Daves and dastardly parliamentary dealings in the Bush Telegraph, and Dunleavy gets all Loony Tunes as she does Robocop.
