Grief and Resilience in the Blitz (with Lucy Worsley) | Wartime Women (Part 3)

Lucy Worsley returns to discover the next part of her grandmother's story - during the Birmingham Blitz. In 1942, Edna Bourne becomes a mother during the Birmingham Blitz. Amid blackouts, bombing raids and disrupted maternity care, she endures grief with little space to rest or speak of it. Through death registers, wartime diaries and Mass Observation accounts, genealogist Jen Baldwin and her guest, historian Lucy Worsley, explore the burdens carried by mothers on the home front. Host and Researcher: Jen BaldwinGuest: Lucy WorsleyEditor: CM87EditsScript Editors: Niall Cullen, Daisy Goddard, Madeleine Gilbert, and Ellie AytonProducers: Madeleine Gilbert and Ellie AytonDesigner: Michael McCoshExecutive Producers: Helen Kaye and Steve James Hosted on Acast.
