I had the honor as acting as the compere for the lecture series at The Tank Museum's Tankfest this year. Among other things, that allowed me to interview the amazing Kate Adie, who was a war correspondent for the BBC through numerous conflicts. This is an exclusive recording of the interview.
The “Great Sedition Trial” uncovered shocking connections at the time with the German reich that we were fighting, and challenged the idea that the nation was of a single mind during the war. It also challenged exactly how far the national commitment to freedom of speech and opinion reached, especially in extraordinary times.
