April Ashley | The Secret That Could Have Saved April | 4

from British Scandal

April's wasn't the only trans rights case to come to court in the late 1960s. But the other - concerning a trans man and the inheritance of a baronetcy - was hushed up and hidden, and those involved sworn to secrecy. Alice and Matt meet Zoe Playdon, the academic who uncovered the case, to learn how its suppression might have sealed April's legal fate.Please vote for us in the British Podcast Awards: https://www.britishpodcastawards.com/votingDo you have a suggestion for a scandal you would like us to cover?
