Ladies Who London

Ep 44 - Bloomsbury - Noor Inayat Khan, Spy Princess


Listen Later

This week we are on the trail of a spy princess, the incredible Noor Inayat Khan. She came to England in 1944 and joined the war effort as a spy, heading behind enemy lines and risking her life to broadcast information back to the UK. Will she make it out alive? Why was a pacifist Muslim woman prepared to go and risk everything during WW2? Find out all the fascinating information here. 

Plus we find out who won the Podcast Pedestal, and we spin the Wheel of Destiny to find out where we are going next!
