The Wicked Lady (Episode 232) - Hot Date with Dan and Vicky

1945's The Wicked Lady directed by Leslie Arliss was an enormous hit for Gainsborough Studios and is still considered one of the most popular and successful British films of all time.  The story of an unrepentant social climber, played by Margaret Lockwood,  who turns to a life of crime pushed the boundaries or propriety with plentiful veiled references to sex and enough heaving bosoms to make American censors uncomfortable.  In fact, the production had to go back and reshoot scenes deemed too revealing to play for American audiences.   The film co-stars James Mason, Patricia Roc, Griffith Jones, and Felix Aylmer. Dan and Vicky discuss the UK classic along with alot of recently seen like Faces of Death (2026), Hunting Matthew Nichols, Peaky Blinders, Alpha, Pretty Lethal and the series Agatha Christie's Seven Dials.  You'll also learn about the sex ed film that became 1945's biggest movie and hear both Dan and Vicky have senior moments!
