Forget everything you know about suave, tuxedo-wearing spies. Krystyna Skarbek, also known as Christine Granville, was a Polish secret agent for the British during World War II who would put any fictional spy to shame. She skied across treacherous mountain passes in a record-breaking cold winter and once faked tuberculosis by biting her own tongue to bleed and convince the Gestapo to release her. She was a master of disguise and deception, earning her the title of "Churchill's favourite spy." Join us as we explore the incredible, and sometimes unbelievably hilarious, true stories of this legendary spy.
