Ladies Who London

Ep 140 - Cato Street Conspiracy - treason and terror


Listen Later

In a small hayloft in Marylebone, a daring plot was formed. This plot was so audacious and terrifying that it could never really happen. Could it?

Against a backdrop of feverish political unrest and suppression of radical thought in 1820, a group of men intent on reform decide to take matters into their own hands. What they are planning to do is unthinkable, but - to them - necessary. The idea - murder the entire Cabinet and tip the country into revolution. Is fate on their side? How are they going to achieve their aim? Join us this week to talk about the Cato Street Conspiracy.
