Summary

It's Sunday Chops time again and this week we have two servings for you. Loosen your belts. In this episode, Mickey and Hannah go to the Echoes of Holloway Prison exhibition to meet journalist and author Caitlin Davies to talk about her new book Bad Girls: A History of Rebels and Renegades. We chat about some of the many women who found themselves in one of the country's most famous prisons - from the Suffragettes and the Greenham Common activists to refugees and unfaithful wives, and ask what we can learn about how society judges women from the way it treats its prisoners.
