Ep 55 - Lambeth - Lucy Houston and the Spitfire Sisters

How do 3 women, all different ages, and from different walks of life, contribute so heavily to the success and development of the Spitfire? We take a look at Lady Lucy Houston, 13 year old Hazel Hill, and Mary Ellis, all of whom did very different but very important things to make the iconic British WW2 plane the success it became. Spoiler - they are not all as straight forward as you might imagine! Plus we find out who won the Podcast Pedestal, and we spin the Wheel of Destiny to find out where we are going next.
