Emmeline Pankhurst tells the therapist all about her working class Manchester roots, her spell in prison and the happiest time of her life on Fleetwood beach. An excitable Barbara Castle talks vividly about the sexual tension in politics and reveals her wildest fantasies. A vain Helen of Troy complete with a thick brummie accent, discusses being spoiled by men her entire life and laments the difficulties of being so pretty. Then a troubled Nancy Spungen performs a couple of lewd songs, Mary Queen of Scots proves incomprehensible with her thick Scottish accent, Eve talks, with great regret, about her sexual relationship with Adam, and Mary Shelley proves quite intimidating as she explains the plot of her latest novel, Frankenstein.
