episode Chevaliere d’Eon artwork

Chevaliere d’Eon

The Chevaliere d’Eon was an 18th century soldier, spy, diplomat, writer, swordswoman, performer, celebrity and blackmailer. In this episode we dive into the rumours, gossip and scandal, attempting to separate fact from fiction to explore the many lives she lived, and understand why her legacy is so important for the LGBTQIA+ community today. We hear about d’Eon’s connection to Leeds through the presentation sword she gifted to her friend George Keate in 1777. With historians Cheryl Morgan, Claire Mead, and Eleanor Wilkinson-Keys, Assistant Curator of Arms and Armour, Royal Armouries.

episode Lakshmi Bai artwork

Lakshmi Bai

A warrior queen who defended her kingdom on the battlefield. Legend tells us she fled the British forces who burned her fortress to the ground, soaring through the sky on horseback, her young son strapped to her back, sword in the air, disappearing into the night.   She returned at the battle of Gwalior, leading her troops into one final stand-off. It was there she was killed, dying valiantly, dressed as a man.  Revered and hated – a rebel, a jezebel, a mother, a warrior - India’s greatest heroine has been called many things… but who was she and will we ever really know? This episode attempts to untangle the myth surrounding Lakshmi Bai, the Rani of Jhansi. With Harleen Singh, Associate Professor of Literature and Women’s Gender and Sexuality Studies at Brandeis University and Natasha Bennett, Curator of Asian and African Collections, Royal Armouries.
