The real Mitford Sisters - Nancy 1
Welcome to our second season - after the UKTV series Outrageous has ended, it’s about time we’ll tell you everything about the REAL Mitfords!
And we’ll kick off with sister number 1: Nancy Mitford.
You’ll get to know everything about her childhood and sometimes bizarre upbringing, Nancy’s part in the Bright Young Things in the roaring 1920s, and of course you’ll get to hear what Farve thought of Hamish - the “love of her life”. And did she always want to become a writer or was that more due to unplanned circumstances?
Tune in and hear it all from us, the Raiders of the Lost Archive - your one and only real Mitford podcast 😃
