Hello and welcome to We Are History with me, Angela Barnes.

And me, John O'Farrell.

Now, John, being our resident feminist on We Are History,

you will no doubt be aware that there's a certain special day coming up this week.

Yes, yes. It's British Pie Week, Angela.

Yes, yes, it is British Pie Week, John.

But what is even more important than that?

More important than pies.

Well, equally important then.

Yes, I know this because I'm such a good feminist.

It is, of course, International Women's Day.

That's right, John.

Well done.

So, ladies, I hope you're going to spend International Women's Day baking an extra special pie for the man in your life to celebrate. Very funny, John. Some humble pie for you, I think. Very good. The way she comes back. She's feisty. She's feisty, that one. Watcher. Fisty Redhead Angela Barnes. It's going to talk to me about international. All the women have now turned off, so we're talking just to the men now.

I thought it would be nice, John, to, rather than do an International Women's Day special,

let's just look at the history of International Women's Day itself, how it came about,

how it sparked an actual revolution.

Did you know that?

And you're sure you're

right to do this? You didn't want me to take the lead, Angela. I'll tell you what, Josh, we'll see

how I get on and you can always step in if you think I'm struggling. That's a good idea.

Well, if you say something, I'll just say it louder with more confidence. That's it. That's happened to be so many times in my life. That's happened to you so many times, Angela.
