Ep 53 - Soho - Windmill Theatre, a riot of bare breasts and bombings

Welcome to the Windmill! Where all the excitement took place during WW2. Faced with a flop of a theatre, Laura Henderson and Vivien Van Damm created the most titillating of theatre, using *gasp* naked women on stage. This was not, however, welcomed, and VD had to be sneaky to get the licence to carry on with the show.

We find out what happened to the Windmill theatre, and how their tagline was cheekily changed by their guests to reflect the bare boobs within!

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