Melita Norwood, The Granny Soviet Spy

Join in on the fun this week as Ellie covers Melita Norwood, the longest running female spy for Russia who operated in the UK for over 40 years without getting caught. A true believer in the Communist ideology, Melita worked hard to pass vital information about the UK's atomic bomb project back to the Soviet Union on the cusp of the Cold War. Fearless, and almost nonchalant, Melita is a testament to the power of being a woman and 'fantastically ordinary' when it comes to getting away with espionage.
